It seems you're storing the date in a variable somewhere in your script which is fine, however, if you need a start and end date then you will need to store the date command again.

Code:
$date=$(date)
printf "Script Started at $date" >> $LOGFILE
sqlplus userid/pwd test1.sql
.
.
.
sqlplus userid/pwd testn.sql
$date=$(date)
printf "Script Ended at $date" >> $LOGFILE
