I managed to solve the issue by downloading the .deb file specified here
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-
driver/+bug/1523100/comments/72. After installing it and then rebooting,
the mic started picking up sound.

NOTE: The complete solution involves: 
1. setting the internal microphone to be mapped to the pin 0x12 using 
alsa-tools-gui (hdajackretask) and then rebooting
2. Downloading and installing the .deb file mentioned above and then rebooting.
