I am using JDBC input and Elastic Search as output.

Writing query to get data from JDBC.Where i have one date column with time.  
in my DB column value as **24/07/2016 09:00.30.000** when i am posting this value into elastic search i am getting this as **24/07/2016 03:30.30.000**.

Where i need to do settings to get **24/07/2016 09:00.30.000** in my elastic search.

Elasticsearch stores times as UTC. If the 24/07/2016 09:00.30.000 timestamp is in UTC+5:30 then everything is okay.
