Thanks! One of the things that I missed while reading other peoples solutions was I never clicked on rebuild sitemap manually. Once I did that, I found everything to be working fine now.

Infact I don't see anything. Did you upload 2 empty files with names sitemap.xml and sitemap.xml.gz to your root directory? (public_html /sitemap.xml) . Pfff, I visited your site now and found that your language is Tamil (I guess?) and your URL's too are in un-known language. I guess that was the parsing issue.
