Used below code to zip the file.

code to zip:

const fs=require('fs');
const zlib = require('zlib');  
const gzip = zlib.createGzip();  

const inp = fs.createReadStream('test.txt');  
const out = fs.createWriteStream('test.txt.gz');  
inp.pipe(gzip).pipe(out);

I was getting an error because the file got corrupted while trying the zip-unzip. There was no error in the code. So after deleting and recreating zip file, i was able to unzip it.

Note:

Whenever you try something like this,if you get such error, then always check file size it should not be zero . If it is zero,then recreate the zip and try again.
