Thanks but....
For the above input file, the awk script is failing to give desired output.

Thanks In advance,

adding a tab solves the problem.
Code:
awk -F"=" '/c1 \{/,/\}/ {OFS="=";if($1=="       axis") $1="     axis1"; }\
 /c2 \{/,/\}/ {if($1==" width") $1="    width2" ; if($1=="      height") $1="   height2" }\
 { print }' input_file.txt

"[TAB key]axis"
