SimpleDateFormat producing wrong date time when parsing "YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm"

I am trying to parse a String (YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm) to Date, however getting wrong date than expected.

CODE:

Date newDate = null;
String dateTime = "2013-03-18 08:30";
SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm", Locale.ENGLISH);
df.setLenient(false);
try {
    newDate = df.parse(dateTime);
} catch (ParseException e) {
    throw new InvalidInputException("Invalid date input.");
}

Produces:

Sun Dec 30 08:30:00 EST 2012 (wrong)

I tried setting Lenient off but no luck.

Update

Thanks Sudhanshu for the answer, it helped me to solve the Java conversion. When I enter the returned date from the above code into the database I am getting the date correctly but the time is always 00:00.

ps.setDate(3, new java.sql.Date(app.getDate().getTime()));
