Hi Dharma M,

Format of the second string is wrong.
Below is the simple way to get it right,

JavaScript

var sysdate = new Date();

var eta = ("27-01-2013").split('-');
var arrivaldate = new Date(eta[2]+'/'+eta[1]+'/'+eta[0]);

alert(sysdate);
alert(arrivaldate);

Problem
Refer - Difference between Date(dateString) and new Date(dateString)[^].

Quote:

new Date(dateString) uses one of these formats:

"October 13, 1975 11:13:00"
"October 13, 1975 11:13"
"October 13, 1975"

Solution
So, you can do like...

JavaScript

var eta = "January 27, 2013 00:00:00";
