I am having the following in config.xml file

Answer 1

So, i found the solution to this issue.. Installed Crosswalk plugin which adds around 17MB to the app size then i tried installing Crosswalk Lite which worked well.

Here are few things you should look for in your config.xml :
1. <preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="16"/>

2.Most important is this one : I was using beta version of xwalk earlier

 <preference name="xwalkVersion" value="xwalk_core_library_beta:18+"/>
 <preference name="xwalkMode" value="embedded"/>

gives me apk of size around 33MB where actual app size is 11MB

now i am using canary version

<preference name="xwalkVersion" value="xwalk_core_library_canary:17+" />
<preference name="xwalkMode" value="lite" />

gives me apk of size around 21MB where actual app size is 11MB.

Please refer to thepio answer above it helped alot.
