is JVM platform dependent or independent..?

Answer Posted / ravi

Java "the language" is platform-independent. To make it so,
there is a platform-specific JRE that knows how to run the
platform-independent Java code on a specific platform.

The JVM could be called platform-independent because it
produces the same results running the same Java code on
different platform(). It is however (at least partially)
implemented as a platform-dependent executable.
