getMonth in javascript gives previous month

by

I am using a datepicker which gives a date in the format Sun Jul 7 00:00:00 EDT 2013.
Even though the month says July, if I do a getMonth, it gives me the previous month.

var d1 = new Date("Sun Jul 7 00:00:00 EDT 2013");
d1.getMonth());//gives 6 instead of 7

What am I doing wrong?
