find /path/to/files -type f -newer /tmp/d1 \! -newer /tmp/d2 | while read fname
do
     mv "$fname" "$dest"
done

I have an idea like first we have to find the list of files from the directory. then we have to get the month of the file using awk {print $6} and based on the month we have to move our files.

pls help me such a way to resolve this issue. Thanks!
