I want to Install eclipse plugin via command line. I have the required zip file with me. By default I install this file from Help->Add new software->Add->Archive..select my zip and install. This same process I want to do it in a linux machine where my eclipse and plugin(zip) will be present and install that zip plugin in the eclipse. Please guide.

You can use the P2 Director application. See https://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox/p2/Director_application .

For those still looking for an answer:

This task can be solved using the console version of the oomph installer https://github.com/a-langer/eclipse-oomph-console. It allows you to install Eclipse in headless mode (from command line) with a set of required plugins.
