Its a 3.5 yrs old bike...The mechanic hinted that the problem can be of clutch plate being worn off. It hasn't been changed ever. Just wanna know what all can be the reasons for this.

The mechanic was very very much correct, the problem is with the clutch plates, actually clutch plates are coated with a layer of leather as the time passes the leather cote burns out due to heat of the engine, ones it is burnt the bike will give u loud noise when ever u try to ride it fast but it wont take the speed... Get the cluthc plates changed dude... get it done from the service centre that would cost u little more but the performance will come up....

Clutch cable manual transmission as the clutch wears the cable must be adjusted for a little freeplay. or some kind of auto transmission? Either way the clutch wont be very hard to replace the firctions and any burnt steels. Most the time clutch wear comes fron owner slipping out the lever quick engagement is best and most small bikes when moving just quick ease back throttle and kick the shift for up shift no clutch.

Logically, if you are not accelerating with an increase in RPM, it has to be something wrong with the clutch or transmission. As a first step, take a look at your clutch cable and make sure it is not too tight, (porbably not).
Otherwise, your mechanic is probably correct and you are in for a new clutch.

Your mechanic is probably right. wearing of clutch plate is normal with all geared vehicles as it is a part which takes all the load of your engine till you shift the gear by way of actualy friction pads used as clutch

Worn clutch plates will do it.
Start engine, put into 2nd gear. Clamp brakes on solid, rev up a little and slowly let out clutch.
If bike doesn't stall, clutch is gone.

A slipping clutch

Your clutch is slipping. If the linkage isn't too tight you'll need a new one.
