Look at the msdn social discussion Somebody asked the same question: Use Windows 8.1 SDK with VS 2012 Update 3
Hello Shubhan You will need VS2013 preview on Windows 8.1 Preview to develop apps for 8.1. Since you have Windows 8 Pro, if you don't want to install the Preview at this time, one option would be to enable the Hyper-V feature on Windows 8 and install Windows 8.1 Preview to a virtual machine, along with VS2013 preview.
