If your sed doesn't remove carriage-returns with sed 's/\r$//' "$csv", try changing:
Code:
csv=${1:-"/home/my/test.csv"}

early in your script to:
Code:
csv=${1:-"/home/my/test.csv"}
tr -d '\r' < "$csv" > "$csv.$$"
csv="$csv.$$"

and add:
Code:
rm -f "$csv"

to the end of your script. Or, if you don't need to keep the input file in DOS format, just change:
Code:
csv=${1:-"/home/my/test.csv"}

to:
Code:
csv=${1:-"/home/my/test.csv"}
tr -d '\r' < "$csv" > "$csv.$$" && cp "$csv.$$" "$csv" && rm "$csv.$$" || exit 1
