user20869: I want to fetch transactions for an address from the following api:
https://blockchain.info/address/$btc_address?format=json
The thing is understanding the json returned from the api, I don't understand which of them are the transaction and the time when that transaction took place and the confirmations of a transaction.
Can any one help?

user13530: The result returned from that API is a compound JSON object containing:

Address basic information and summary
List of transactions associated with that address

The transactions are included in a JSON-encoded list under the txs key. Every transaction itself is a dictionary-like object holding pertinent information.
It should be pretty clear when you visualize it into a tree structure. You can use JSONView plugin for Firefox or Chrome - it'll render all application/json responses in a nice hierarchical and clickable tree and help you understand it.
