But, this is not falling on top of the original polygon. It is falling in completely in a different location i.e beyond the map limits. What should I do to have this fall at the right location?

This tool literally just takes the coordinates in the features and
scales them by the value -- so a vertex at 30.5, 70 will scale to 70,
140 if you scale with 2/2 scaling values. (In other words, it will
appear to move). To scale around a center point you'd need to
translate the feature back to the origin, scale it, and then translate
back to its original location.
