As I found Transmission oil leaking on my driveway, I went to mechanic.
First time he thought it is gasket so he changed Pan gasket, applied silicone but it still leaked.
Second time he changed all lines (3 pipes) between Radiator and Transmission but still Transmission oil is leaking. Anybody can guide what could be the reason for oil leak?

We checked Solenoid and is not leaking. Today we again removed the Pan, applied new silicone. Let's see whether it stops leaking now.

Finally it seems it resolved by resealing the Trany Pan again. Actually, it was a bad workmandship the first time. Mechanic didn't apply enough silicone the first time so Pan still kept leaking. Thanks everyone for your help.

The pan gasket on these is just RTV silicone and is prone to leaking. The solenoid, which is on the front of the transmission just above the pan is also a common source of leaks. This will sometimes present as a pan gasket leak because the solenoid is mounted just above the pan and the fluid tends to collect around the pan gasket. Usually the entire solenoid needs to be replaced when it leaks.

There is an external control for the solenoids on the side of the transmission facing the radiator, i have seen the gasket for those leak so that could be your source.
I think the air filter box will need to be removed so you can check it. or you may be able to see it with a bright enough flashlight.
