Thanks, it was helpful and working for me 100%...

NOTE: The link provided for "SuperSU 2.66.zip" is not correct it refers to "SuperSU-2.76-STABLE-sprout.zip" which is an APK package can't be flashed from TWRP...

Please check your load matches to your target which is to be downloaded.

How do i rectify the problem.

Its either you're flashing incorrectly or yours is a different variant.
Please, create a new thread so we focus on it (include a full screenshot of the error message)
see https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-514.html for how to create a thread
