Thanks guys for all the help.I followed your responses and found that my first mistake was the $SEPARATOR variable was out of scope of the block so was not resolving correctly.
Secondly the caret A was not getting removed from the file is because ..when the job ran the wrapper script changed the LANG variable and so the caret A was not getting removed.I have explicitly exported it in the script and now its fine.

Thanks guys for all the help!
