The server you connected to doesn't have a great SSL certificate. A quick search to StackOverflow forwarded me to this great question and answers: Safely fixing: javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: No peer certificate

I have trusted Comodo certificate and my app is working perfectly for marshmallow version. Facing issue for lollipop version. – Twinkle Mar 30 '17 at 13:02
Have you tried to access that URL via SSL on your common browser? Don't know why, some certificates doesn't work on Android. We had a bad experience with RapidSSL ones, for example :·/ – Roc Boronat Mar 30 '17 at 15:08

The server you are trying to connect is not authorized. You will have to do SSL pinning, download the SSL Certificate signed by any CA.
