is there anything wrong that we are doing?

Yes. The valid range of values for a pwm output is 0-254. Since the pwm "variables" in the code are of type unsigned char, trying to set one to 256 will actually end up with it set to zero.

This snippet was placed in the user_routines.c
is that the correct place or should it be under user_routines_fast.c?

You'll need to be a lot more specific about where you put the code. The filename is not really important. What matters is the name of the function in which it appears: Process_Data_From_Master_uP(), Default_Routine(), Process_Data_From_Local_IO(), etc.
