Cronjob script not renaming file
Hello,
I have below script, which connects to ftp server, pull a file and then it renames it after deleting previous day file. This was working before but now it is not able to rename 'Red_bill.txt' to `Red_bill.V01.txt`. If I run manually 'rename Red_bill.txt Red_bill.V01.txt', I am able to rename, but script is not able to do so. Is something wrong or changed on below script ? Can somebody have a look and help ?

Code:
tpvwex@vmtpr01:~> cat /home/vendors2/tpvwex_home/pull_file_wrightexpress.sh
#!/bin/sh
HOST='ftp.trigertpv.com'
USER='Red'
FILE='Red_bill.txt'
cat > /tmp/script_file_$$ <<EOF
    get ${FILE}
    rm Red_bill.V01.txt
    rename ${FILE} Red_bill.V01.txt
    exit
EOF
 sftp -b /tmp/script_file_$$ $USER@$HOST
exit_status=$?
rm -f /tmp/script_file_$$
if [ $exit_status != 0 ];then
   echo "SFTP file transfer is failed for file $FILE" |mailx -s "FTPtrigertpv status"  BSS_C8@Red.com
else
echo "SFTP file transfer is successfull for file $FILE" |mailx -s "FTPtrigertpv status" BSS_C8@Red.com
cp $FILE $FILE.`date +%m%d%y`
fi
tpvwex@vmtpr01:~>
