Thanks for the reply Swastik, but what will be the effect of this? Here both conditions all!=null and all.length>0 are same. I tried this but the result is same as previous.

just simple modification you need to do
i.e while getting the value through getValue() cast it to the string object or date object and then call toString() on that.

Java code in a JSP? In 2012?

Don't you think that it might be helpful to show exactly what "some alphanumeric string" is?

but the value returned by getValue() is already of String type and value of the cookie is date so it should automatically display date.

Scriptlets are not "the basics"? They were replaced by the JSTL and EL 10 years ago in 2002. They should never ever be used. Ever.
This is the alphaneumeric string which im getting- 62165E019EC28823D68D7C630294D220
What does the browser say that the value of the cookie is?
(That looks suspiciously like a long value -- hint.)

then just use that string value to create a date object and call the toString() on it .
because the string value representing the long value.
