try this and it will take care of any date/time format

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
        return;
    }

    // Parse string to milliseconds
    var dateMS = getDateFromFormat(newValue, g_user_date_time_format);
    var newDT = new Date();
    newDT.setTime(dateMS);

    // Example: Add 3 months
    newDT.setMonth(newDT.getMonth() + 3);

    // If you want 6 or 12 months, just change the +3:
    // newDT.setMonth(newDT.getMonth() + 6); // For 6 months
    // newDT.setMonth(newDT.getMonth() + 12); // For 12 months

    var val = formatDate(newDT, g_user_date_time_format);
    alert(val);
}

Output:I added 3 months, enhance further

@svirkar420 

are you sure the above script will work fine in client script?

Could you please share a working example?

Hi there @is_12 , Here is the script it should work for all date and time formats regardless of any region.

Script - 

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}

var gdt = new GlideDateTime();
gdt.setDisplayValue(newValue);

var dayOfWeek = getDayName(gdt);

var date3 = new GlideDateTime(gdt);
date3.addMonthsLocalTime(3);

var date6 = new GlideDateTime(gdt);
date6.addMonthsLocalTime(6);

var date12 = new GlideDateTime(gdt);
date12.addMonthsLocalTime(12);

g_form.setValue('day_of_week', dayOfWeek);
g_form.setValue('next_3_months', date3.getDisplayValue());
g_form.setValue('next_6_months', date6.getDisplayValue());
g_form.setValue('next_12_months', date12.getDisplayValue());
}

function getDayName(gdt) {
var jsDate = new Date(gdt.getNumericValue());
var days = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday'];
return days[jsDate.getDay()];
}
