But K = K0 * E^(-Ea/RT). So catalyst will reduce the Ea value hece it should be in creasing.

It is rate constant not equilibrium constant @Ronak.

Equilibrium constant only depends on temp.

A catalyst has no effect on the equilibrium position or constant of chemical reaction, it only alters the chemical reaction rate by lowering the activation energy of the chemical reaction.
