Dates not getting rightly populated upon bulk import through CSV

Hello, i'm importing epics in bulk through a csv file. Everything is getting populated on the newly created epics except the dates. i tried multiple ways and date formats, but it's always taking month as January (01). Please see the screenshots and guide what mistake I'm making,

To rule out if some automation is overriding the values, can you test by importing the issue and not provide or map "Target Start" and "Target End".

Let's see what happens in this case.

HI 

You need to choose the correct date format that matches exactly what you have in your CSV when importing. use  plain text editor to edit the csv. The steps are described in https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/dates-are-not-properly-imported-from-csv-file-245825977.html
