Seems like these softwares mirrors on kali.org are too slow coz I'm getting something like a 100 kb/s of speed which rarely goes to 300 kb/s at times. Even though the other linux repo's serve my software requests at around 800-900 kb/s. You can observe the same thing when you're trying to download Kali from the official site. Seems like they have a bandwidth issue.
Use Alt Download mirrors at other locations when you're downloading Kali ISO.
change repositories to a different high speed mirror...and voila

instead of:
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
use:
deb http://repo.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
