Scheduler not running in Spring Boot

I have created a Spring Boot application. I have configured my class that contains the scheduler method startService(). Below is my code :

Service Class :

package com.mk.service;  
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.Scheduled;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

import com.mk.envers.model.BossExtChange;
import com.mk.envers.model.BossExtChangeRepository;

@Component
public class EnverseDemoService {

    @Autowired
    BossExtChangeRepository bossExtChangeRepository;

    @Scheduled(fixedRate = 30000)
    public void startService() {
        System.out.println("Calling startService()");
        BossExtChange bossExtChange = bossExtChangeRepository.findById(5256868L);
        System.out.println("bossExtChange.getDescription()--->"+bossExtChange.getDescription());
        System.out.println("Ending startService()");
    }
}

Main Class :

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.PropertySource;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.EnableScheduling;

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableScheduling
@PropertySource("classpath:application.properties")
public class EnverseDemoApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(EnverseDemoApplication.class, args);
    }
}

I have annotated the class as @Component and also method as @Scheduled(fixedRate = 30000) that will running as a scheduler. But while running the application as Spring Boot the scheduler does not trigger. The console show the below message:

2016-02-03 10:56:47.708  INFO 10136 --- [           main] o.s.j.e.a.AnnotationMBeanExporter        : Registering beans for JMX exposure on startup

2016-02-03 10:56:47.736  INFO 10136 --- [       Thread-2] j.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean : Closing JPA EntityManagerFactory for persistence unit 'default'

Can anyone please help me out.

May be you can solve this problem by adding the @ComponentScan annotation in the configuration file

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableScheduling
@ComponentScan(basePackages = "com.mk.service")
@PropertySource("classpath:application.properties")
public class EnverseDemoApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(EnverseDemoApplication.class, args);
    }
}
