Do you have a custom controller for this?  If so you can just preset the values in the controller.  Otherwise you should be able to set the value of the fields to today() or today() + 30, etc.

Hello Karthikeya,

Otherwise you can create formula fields for these 3 fields. So that they will populate automatically.
Formala Field 1: Start_Date__c = Today()
Formula Field 2: End_date__c=  Start_Date__c + 30
Formula Field 3: Due_Date__c = Start_Date__c+1

Hope this helps you!

Regards,
Deepthi
