Server = https://kaos-frankfurt.tk/repo/$repo this gives error 403 then I searched the forum & changed the default mirror to Server = http://kaosx.tk/repo/$repo which does not give error while syncing. Please suggest me the correct default mirror
[Solved] KaOS official mirror

The Frankfurt mirror is syncing correctly, so it seems your local database files were corrupted. Change back to the Frankfurt mirror if you prefer and run:
sudo pacman -Syy
Or use any other mirror close to you. You can also use the included rank mirrors tool to see which mirror performs best for you:
rankmirrors -n 4 /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
this command will result in listing the best 4 mirrors for you.

Thanks Demm for your prompt response. I wanted to remove a package (conky-manager) that I installed from KCP repo. I googled & followed this tutorial : http://www.linuxandlife.com/2011/12/right-way-to-uninstall-software-in-arch.html
After successfully uninstalling the packages I tried the command: sudo pacman -Scc just to test the features of pacman. After running this command when I run the following commands, the result is this:
http://pastebin.com/nvGbgY49
then I screwed up the mirrors list by altering the servers. The current content of my /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist is this:
http://pastebin.com/nRpwATEU
Any hints on how to reinstall/recover the default mirrors list please?
Re-install the package pacman-mirrorlist
Then the original mirrorlist will be set as pacnew in /etc/pacman.d/, just merge/copy over.
Thanks Demm it resolved the issue:
sudo pacman -S pacman-mirrorlist
