Passing data between two fragments

Let's say I'd like to pass data from Fragment A to Fragment B but it throws a nullpointerexception at Fragment B. I'd like to pass the data without use of activity. How do I resolve this?

In FragmentA.java 

FragmentB ldf = new FragmentB ();
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putString("gender", genderSelected);
args.putString("name", name.getText().toString());
args.putString("contact", contactNo.getText().toString());
args.putString("age", age.getText().toString());
ldf.setArguments(args);

//Inflate the fragment
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.fragmentContainer,ldf).commit();

In FragmentB.java - in onCreateView() method

//Receive data from previous fragment - to be submitted in save

 String age = getArguments().getString("age");
 String gender = getArguments().getString("gender");
 String contact = getArguments().getString("contact");
 String name = getArguments().getString("name");

Try to create a static method on your class FragmentB

public static FragmentB newInstance(String gender, String name, String contact, String age) {

    FragmentB fragment = new FragmentB();
    Bundle args = new Bundle();
    args.putString("gender", genderSelected);
    args.putString("name", name.getText().toString());
    args.putString("contact", contactNo.getText().toString());
    args.putString("age", age.getText().toString());
    fragment.setArguments(args);
    return fragment;

}//newInstance

and 

//Inflate the fragment
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.fragmentContainer,FragmentB.newInstance(gender,name,contact,age)).commit();

finally get the datas in your onCreateView() as you did!

Your Fragment A is Perfect but in Fragment B you need to change as per following code. 

Bundle bundle = this.getArguments();
String age = bundle.getString("age");
String gender = bundle.getString("gender");
String contact = bundle.getString("contact");
String name = bundle.getString("name");

Direct communication between fragment and fragment is not proper way.Refers this link.

Store the data in Shared Preferences.
