So can you please tell me how i can change my IP

Thanks
Just a guess here, but since the dhcpagent keeps the lease information in memory, killing it may solve your problem...

Try:
ifconfig <interface> dhcp release
pkill dhcpagent
ifconfig <interface> dhcp start

I'd also make sure your router/dhcp server isn't looking explicitly for the MAC address of that interface and assigning it an IP based on that MAC address.
