Thanks, but it is giving this error :(

SystemError: E:I wasn't able to locate file for the bandwidthd package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.

You downloaded the .tgz package or .deb package?

Don't know, but it seems to be some issue with Ubuntu Software Center. Happened to a other few apps too. Installed netspeed independently. Thanks for the help.
