    I have added SSL to my website and redirect http non-www to https www with htaccess but sometime https shows in my domain name and sometimes not on browsers. I just want to know whether it's htaccess redirection code issue or SSL installation issue or anything else. If you ask i can show you my htaccess codes. One more thing, The site is currently added to Google Webmaster Tools as www.pnrstatusbuzz.in and all the pages are indexed without using SSL. Do I just submit a updated sitemap which has the HTTPS URLs or Do I add a new site as https://www.pnrstatusbuzz.in and submit the sitemap with HTTPS urls?

    If I understand you correctly, it probably depends on your browser. In chrome/chromium, I see http connections as just the domain name in the location bar, but https connections show the full https://sitename.tld/ - if that's what you're seeing, it probably means you're not accessing the site over https:// when you don't see it there.

    As for search console, I'm not an expert, but I would add the site to search console using https url's (https://domain.tld/ and https://www.domain.tld/), select the preferred alternative, and submit a new sitemap in the https entry which used https url's, and follow up with http->https redirects, hsts header and csp header to upgrade insecure requests.
