I do not need to manually remove the inbuilt emacs.

I install org-mode with contrib included from elpa: org-plus-contrib is the package name you will see in the package manager.

I have these in the following order:

;; For org-plus-contrib
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "http://orgmode.org/elpa/") t)

(package-initialize)

That results in the elpa version of org-mode coming BEFORE the inbuilt version of org-mode in the load-path list. The first one read is used and the later one is ignored.

Here is my full el file for package setup: https://github.com/kaushalmodi/.emacs.d/blob/master/setup-packages.el

I can't test it at the moment, but I'm pretty sure this is a result of
Emacs' built-in Org being loaded before package manager gets to install
the newer release of Org.  You need to move any init files aside that
pick up Org before doing the upgrade from package manager running in a
freshly started Emacs.
