Just have tried this :
library(RCurl)
x = postForm("https://www.amfiindia.com/net-asset-value/nav-history",
'NAV Date' = "25-Jul-2016")
However doesnt look like I get valid data, because I still can get
result for some future date as well!!
Any other option I should try?

It is simply reading HTML, XML, or JavaScript. If you are unable to specify a particular set of values that delivers this during a human mediated interaction, then you should contact the owners of the webpage rather posting here.
