Try your request in ng-init

<form name="cca">
    <input type="text" ng-model="form.product_id"  ng-init="profile_data_init()">
    <input type="button" ng-click="profile_updated()">
</form>

and set $scope.form.product_id = $scope.prod_id = data[0].pid; on success

$scope.profile_data_init = function() {
    $http.post("ajax/profile_updation.php",{profile_up_init:"profile_init"}).
    success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
        $scope.form.product_id = $scope.prod_id = data[0].pid; //json data
    }).
    error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
        alert("Please Try Again..!");
    });
}
