Hi Naveen, Make sure you're advertising support for XHTML using https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0071.html#discovery
Also, you might want to double-check that your Java client isn't encoding the XHTML into its entities, there might be a different method you need to use to send a message with formatting than the one you currently use. You can test this in Pidgin by looking in Help->Debug Window when you receive a message, or enabling the XMPP Console Log plugin, and looking in Tools->Console Log.
