Nitin, Parsoid actually has some support for basic template expansion as well, but it does not re-implement all extensions and parser functions from MediaWiki. Some of those like Lua scripting are used on many pages.
However, there is a production API for Parsoid HTML at http://parsoid-lb.eqiad.wikimedia.org/. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid/API for the API docs. This API can sustain moderate traffic only right now (please don't send more than 10 req/s), but a faster API using RESTBase will come online in the next weeks.
