"_id" : ObjectId("5a82e6dc1139b572569fa785"),
"name" : "Vikas",
"salary" : 72.0,
"address" : [ 
    {
        "address_id" : ObjectId("5a82f0e51139b572569fa78c"),
        "address" : "Mullanpur ",
        "pincode" : "140901",
        "country" : "India"
    },

No need for $elemMAtch, just a condition for the sub-documents within array. In your case:

db.add_fun.update(
{},
{ $pull: {
    address: {
        pincode: "140901"
    }    
} },
{ multi:true }
);
