new Date(2017, 03, 07).toString(); // ""Fri Apr 07 2017 00:00:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)"

@Dinistro For more additional date formats specific to region u can use moment js otherwise u can use the above one

I dont understand how new Date(2017, 03, 07).toString(); works here?

@Jaron787 see my edited answer with screenshot it works !!!

I'm wanting to change my format from Fri Apr 07 2017 00:00:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time) to 2017, 03, 07 not the other way round

@Jaron787 Try this var a = moment().format('YYYY DD MM') console.log(a); // 2017 07 03
