kendo ui grid date column - control the format of date sent by filter operation

How do we control the format of date sent to the server as a result of applying a Date Filter to a grid column. For example, I have following View

<script type="text/javascript">
    $("#request-grid").kendoGrid({
        dataSource: {
        ...
            schema: {
                model: {
                    fields: {
                        CreatedOn: { type: "date" },
                        ...
                    }
                }
            }
         },
        columns: [{
            field: "Id", title: "Id", width: 20
        }, {
            field: "CreatedOn", title: "Created On", width: 75, format: "{0:dd-MM-yyyy}"
        }, {
            command: ["edit", "destroy"], width: 200
        }],
    });

</script>

With when I try to filter the Date Column (CreatedOn), I see that the parameter is sent in format

Wed Mar 12 2014 00:00:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time).

How do I control the format of date that is being sent to server as a result of applying a Date filter on grid column.

I have already followed the procedure of setting culture as described here. Here is how I configured in the Layout page.

kendo.timezones.js and kendo.culture.en-IN.js included through bundle

<script type="text/javascript">
    kendo.culture("en-IN");
</script>

Any advice please.

I was recently fighting the same issue and for me the simplest way was to override the Date object toString method. I did it this way:

Date.prototype.toString = function() {
    return this.getFullYear() + "-" + (this.getMonth() + 1) + "-" + this.getDate() + " " + this.getHours() + ":" + this.getMinutes() + ":" + this.getSeconds();
}

if chaging the culture is not doing the work. Then the function that you need to use is called parameterMap under the dataSource.transport configuration.
