Thanks for reply, Now current Header is a follows

(Status-Line) HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Date Mon, 20 Feb 2012 04:39:10 GMT
Content-Type text/html
Last-Modified Mon ,20 Feb 2012 04:29:10 GMT
Accept-Ranges bytes
Content-Lenght 8334
Cache-Control max-age=86400,public
Expires Tue, 21 Feb 2012 04:29:10 GMT
X-Cache MISS from colinux
Via 1.0 colinux (squid/3.1.18)
Connection close

But still it logs as TCP_REFRESH_MODIFIED for my server, but other web
pages (i.e www.squid-cache.org ) showing TCP_MEM_HIT with same response
header.
