Only getting last record saved...Why

That is not the cause of their problem - they open the file in append mode.
The problem is in the loop on lines 37-51. You virtually loop over the file and read each line, every time replacing h before you have written it to a file. So, only the last row of the source file is written. You either need to move the part where you write (lines 53-58) inside loop or create a list of dicts and then write all of them in one go using csv.DictWriter.writerows() method
