I went through this tutorial http://blog.mathieu.carbou.me/post/60454997009/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-2-2 to reverse tether my android phone to use PC internet via USB.

Using following commands I am successfully able to create bridge br0.

sudo ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0
sudo ifconfig usb0 0.0.0.0
sudo brctl addbr br0 
sudo brctl addif br0 eth0
sudo brctl addif br0 usb0
sudo ifconfig br0 up
sudo dhclient br0

br0 has ip address : 172.16.138.102

My android phone is showing rndis0. I used following command using adb shell as root.

netcfg rndis0 dhcp

rndis0 was assigned ip : 172.16.138.109/24

Then I added default gateway for rndis0 interface.

route add default gw 172.16.138.102 dev rndis0

Still internet was not working on android. I tried several other tutorials but same info was mentioned everywhere. Am I missing something or I need to do something more for running internet?

Try to use Reverse Tethering tool. Its in beta version so Android Browser will not know that Internet is working but you can surf internet.

Use gnirehtet. Note: After getting connected to gnirehtet server, just keep the data connection ON, although your data will not be used, only your PC internet will be used on android.
