Consider:

var myDate = $scope.today;
var previousDay = new Date(myDate);
previousDay.setDate(myDate.getDate() - 1);
var date = previousDay; // 2017-03-04 09:46:22.103 +5.30 GMT

How do I get to only have "2017-03-03 09:46:22.103"?

    AFAIK Angular doesn't have anything that allows you to format a date. You will probably want to use vanilla JS instead. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3552461/how-to-format-a-javascript-date. – Samir Aguiar Mar 04 '17 at 04:57

You can use 

var requiredDateFormat = previousDay.toLocaleDateString() + " " + previousDay.toLocaleTimeString();

  • The format of *toLocaleDateString* is entirely implementation dependent and varies from host to host. There is no guarantee that the result will have the format in the OP. For me, Safari gives "3/5/2017", Firefox "05/03/2017". – RobG Mar 04 '17 at 21:03

You can use new Date().toJSON();. It will return "2017-03-04T04:55:50.786Z".
