It looks like it has increased the disk size.
but df shows old size

Do we have to manually do something inside the VM .
Oh right, I see. Are you using an ancient version of virt-resize
(ie. 1.2.<something>)?
For these very old versions of virt-resize you do need to manually
expand the filesystem inside the VM. Just do:
resize2fs /dev/xvda1
In more recent versions of virt-resize, virt-resize itself does this
automatically.
Grub is having no problem at all it works fine only that i am not
able to
mount it:
mount -o loop,offset=32256 Fedora12-1 /mnt/disk1/
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
Not sure what you're trying to do, but try using guestfish:
guestfish --ro -i Fedora12-1
