android - Installed app section shows package name instead of app name for my own application

Screen shot of installed app section I created an small puzzle app. I created the android:label as Math. After installing the app in menu grid it shows as "Math", but in the installed apps section it shows the package name. Pls help me out.

Manifest code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.tam.prasanth.MathFunDemo" >

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/logo"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar" >
            <intent-filter >
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

Please specify android:label="@string/app_name" tag in application tag. And also set value of app_name in string.xml to your application name (Math).`

the application name (label) should be within the application tag and not the activity.

<application 
android:label="@string/app_name"
>
....
