Hi Sakthidasan,

Please save the VF Page by going to Setup --> Build --> Develop --> Visualforce Page

Because some times it will not take the Query string parameters when you use the editor from Developer Mode.

Can you please post the screen shot of your VF page with URL. your code is good you just need to pass id in URL

https://na1.salesforce.com/apex/HelloWorld2?id=001D000000IRt53

Look like ID you are passing for account(001D000000IRt53) contact id always start with 003.

Hi Sakthidasan,

Please find the below code: 
<apex:page standardController="Contact">
    <apex:form >
        <apex:pageBlock title="Quick Edit: {!Contact.Name}">
            <apex:pageBlockSection title="Contact Details" columns="1">
                <apex:inputField value="{!Contact.Phone}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Contact.MobilePhone}"
                label="Mobile #"/>
                <apex:inputText value="{!Contact.Email}"
                label="{!Contact.FirstName + '’s Email'}"/>
            </apex:pageBlockSection>
            <apex:pageBlockButtons >
                <apex:commandButton action="{!save}" value="Save"/>
            </apex:pageBlockButtons>
        </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>

I also tested the above code in my DE environment.
