I found a solution for this problem and it help me to re-enable wifi data tethering on my kitkat phone.

1. Download Android SDK (Developer Toolkit).

3. Enable "Developer Options" and "Usb debbugging".
4. From command prompt, Change directory to "android-sdk\platform-tools"
5. Type Command

adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/global --bind name:s:tether_dun_required --bind value:i:0

6. To verify,type Command

adb shell content query --uri content://settings/global --where "name='tether_dun_required' AND value=0"

7. Retstart your phone and check wifi tethering.
