 So, I created a new meta key with the name "_tstock" and stored numeric
 values in it, used the code below for sorting:
 **$args['orderby'] = 'meta_value_num';
 $args['order'] = 'DESC';
 $args['meta_key'] = '_tstock';**
 The products tend to repeat after switching the page if the value of
 _tstock of the last product is similar to first product on the next page.
 Elaborating a bit more :-
 Let's assume that there are 10 products with the _tstock value equal to
 one and 5 products are displayed on the first page while the rest 5 are
 displayed on second page.
 The total number of the product will not change instead some of the
 products from the first page will be displayed on the second page
 replacing the ones that should be displayed.
