I have exchange 2013 on Azure VM which is also a DC. for using services like autodiscover etc I need to get a valid 3rd Party certificate which I got from STARTSSL, I generated the request and got the certificate downloaded along with private key from STARTSSL. I clicked complete and import the certificate still it says status pending. I also tried the certufil -repairstore my "thumbprint" but it asks for smart card which I cant as my Machine is on AZURE VM, can anyone help please ?

That looks to me like the certificate didn't install correctly. Not unusual. You could try downloading the certificate again and see if it will install correctly a second time. Otherwise it will have to be a new request within Exchange so you get a fresh key pair.
You shouldn't have Exchange on a domain controller either...
