I wonder why in same machine localhost:1988/MyService.svc?wsdl responds whereas http://myMachineIp:port/MyService.svc does not.

I did try configuring IIS Express to Accept Remote connections by changing applicationhost file as

<bindings>
    <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:1988:localhost" />
    <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:1989:MyMachineIP" />
</bindings>

and run this command in prompt

netsh http add urlacl url=http://MyMachineIP:1989/ user=everyone

and also setup firewall 

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="IISExpressMyApplication" dir=in protocol=tcp localport=1989 profile=private remoteip=localsubnet action=allow

What else do I need to setup?

I am trying to connect WCF service request from Xamarin Android application running in real device but not in emulator.

Thank you.

I'm not well-versed in IIS, but found a similar situation that may help you:

IIS - can't access page by ip address instead of localhost

Open a command prompt as administrator and type:

netsh http add iplisten [MyMachineIP]

Where [MyMachineIP] is the IP address of your server.
