Winscp ftp script not working

I have a WinSCP batch file that I am trying to utilize for uploading a file. The batch when run does open, but logs in only and does not upload the file or exit even from the script. Just keeps the window open. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Attaching file.

I am from Linux oriented.
Hence thought of sharing the same.

Tried the same using:
1. Started vmplayer (Linux) at windows
2. Shared a folder at windows to Linux
3. mounted that folder at Linux
4. Modified given code based on above steps
5. Written codes (as per commands from FTP/batch commands)

@ECHO OFF

	"CD /mnt/murugesandins" ^
	"PUT murugesandins.txt" ^
	"EXIT"
SET WINSCP_RESULT=%ERRORLEVEL%
IF %WINSCP_RESULT% EQU 0 (
	ECHO SUCCESS
) ELSE (
  ECHO ERROR
)
EXIT /b %WINSCP_RESULT%
