As per the docs,

Due to a current limitation of the new Google Play Developer Console, you won't be able to add additional expansion files to the very first APK file that you upload for a new application. As a work-around, please upload first a placeholder APK file and then replace it with an APK file containing the additional expansion files you need. All of this can be performed while the application is still in draft state, so there is no impact on your (prospective) users.

It works for me..

As indicated in the new console, this feature is not supported yet. You need to switch back to the old console.

You cannot upload Expansion files as of now. Instead switch back to Old Developer console.
