extremely sorry for the late reply... just pick up the "haida.img". do not drag and drop it, just navigate to it through the dialogue boxes after selecting fastboot mode> select kernel to flash> go to the respective directory> done!

TA-DA!

Hi,
I m trying to flash Cynogen Mod 12 on my Xperia L phone, using FlashTool.
However, unlike .ftf file, FlashTool is not recognising the zip. I even tried to extract the zip in a folder containing boot.img, still the FlashTool is not recognizing anything there.
Please help.

I'd suggest you flash it from the recovery. It's a more successful and preferred option.
