What do you want? Do you want to show file but not directory?
If yes, try this

Code:
for file in `ls -lrt * | awk '{print $9}'|grep -v "^d"`
do
    if [ -f $file ]; then
       echo $file
   fi
loop

ls -lrt | grep -v "^d" | awk '{print $9}'


remove * from ls command and shift grep one step ahead... because if you put awk first, it takes only the 9 th column ( i.e file name )... then no where you can find "^d" to remove lines.

Code:
$ ls -lrt *.CSV | awk '{print $9}'|grep -v "^d"

Just try... the following two commands

ls -lrt *.CSV
ls -lrt

In the second command you will find additional line something like "total 6"... this is causing the blank line...

if you want to filter this out, add

change the grep to

egrep -v "^d|^total"

find -type f | while IFS= read vo
do
echo `basename "$vo"`
done
