Answer

Try executing these line by line in the terminal window instead of downloading the .whl file externally. Moreover, earlier I tried with external source, and due to that mass up happend. Hence, I would recommend to go with pipwin install.

pip install wheel
pip install pipwin
pipwin install numpy
pipwin install pandas
pipwin install shapely
pipwin install gdal
pipwin install fiona
pipwin install pyproj
pipwin install six
pipwin install rtree    
pipwin install geopandas
