this code is working in innodb_version 5.5.34 but not working innodb_version 5.6.21.......any clue, where I am doing mistake???

error - #1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'DELIMITER' at line 1
When creating a Stored Procedure, you do not need COMMIT;.

I have never used it for Stored Procedures.

No one should have to because Stored Procedures are stored in a MyISAM table (mysql.proc)

Please remove the COMMIT; before the END // and try again.

I would also change line to say

DELIMITER $$


and the end clause to

END $$


and try again

I thought you were working in the mysql client. If your problem is SQLFiddle, here is post from StackOverflow by its Author (Execute triggers stored procedures on SqlFiddle. Mysql)

Based on it, stop using DELIMITER altogether. Look for the fourth button under the query pane. 

I just installed MySQL 5.6.22 for Windows on my laptop and ran your code as is. It Works !!!

The only culprit left would be phpmyadmin. It cannot handle delimiters against the latest version of MySQL, which is 5.6. You may need an upgrade of phpmyadmin.
