The problem is Thu Dec 9 13:30:00 UTC+0530 2010 can't be parsed into a valid datetime object in c#. You can try that by simply calling DateTime.Parse("Thu Dec 9 13:30:00 UTC+0530 2010") it will fail.

I would suggest that instead of returning that date format from the server you can better return the ISO 8601 format that looks like 2010-12-09T08:00:00.000Z.

You can easily convert the long datetime format into ISO 8601 from javascript by,

new Date("Thu Dec 9 13:30:00 UTC+0530 2010").toJSON();

If you are using JSON.NET library you can easily control the way in which the datetimes have to be serialized.

UPDATE:

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Index(Student[] students)
{
  ...
}
