1. Open project directory Using Terminal (which you are using i.e. mintty )
2. Now install composer within this directory as per given directions on https://getcomposer.org/download/

php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"

php -r "if (hash_file('SHA384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'the-provided-hash-code') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"

php composer-setup.php php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"

3. Now run your command.

Everything is working fine now because the composer.phar file is available within the current project directory.
