can anyone help me out
Because by the time the command ls -tr is run the re-directed filename becomes the latest one and hence the same file-name gets stored in the same file. Try
Code:
echo $(ls -tr | tail -1) > newfile.txt

But if you run once again you get the file newfile.txt appended to itself. Check by replacing > with >>. If you need a permanent solution then redirect the output file to a file present in different location.

Or could execute in a sub-shell
Code:
(ls -tr|tail -1 > newfile.txt)

# Which when run once again has newfile.txt stored in itself.
