Hi, I am pasting the complete code meanwhile I am editing the script accoding to vgersh99's advise. Hope, I am able to make some sense. Please let me know if you need any other information

Code:
#!/bin/bash

#static value assignment to a variable

list_file=lst	   #taking a variable into extraction list file

enc_tar_xtnsn=tar.gz.enc	#taking a variable into extraction encrypted file 

xtr_flptrn1=bw3-syst_INST 	#taking a variable into extraction file path

#main_scp=/usr/local/scripts/omniadm/omnftppasrv/extract.sh  #main extraction script

echo "Enter file processing date [YYYYMMDD]"
read file_x_date       

echo "Inst nu:"
read inst_nmb      

#breaking 80byte_flnm into YYYYMM and DD

yr_mnth=`echo "${file_x_date}"|awk '{print substr($0,1,6)}'`

only_dt=`echo "${file_x_date}"|awk '{print substr($0,7,8)}'`

#variable value assigned dynamically based on static value assignemnt above

xtr_flnm_list="${xtr_flptrn1}""${inst_nmb}"-"{$file_x_date}"\."{$list_file}"    #taking a variable into extraction file name

#---echo $xtr_flnm_list

xfile_pth=/backup/omnftppasrv/bw3/"${yr_mnth}"  # storing extraction file path into a variable

#---echo $xfile_pth

enc_tar_filename="${xtr_flptrn1}""${inst_nmb}"-"${file_x_date}"\."${enc_tar_xtnsn}"

#---echo $enc_tar_filename

#cmptl_extr_list_file=$xfile_pth/$xtr_flnm_list	#storing complete file name with path into a variable

#echo $cmptl_extr_list_file

cmptl_extr_enc_file="${xfile_pth}"/"${enc_tar_filename}"

echo $cmptl_extr_enc_file

echo "filename to extract"
read flnm_80byte    

	if [[ "$flnm_80byte" =~ .*\.prc ]]
	then
		echo "correct file name"
	elif [[ "$flnm_80byte" =~ .*\.inc ]]
	  then
		  strppd_flname=`echo $flnm_80byte|awk '{print substr($0, 1, length($0) - 4)}'`
		  flnm_80BYTE=$strppd_flname\.prc
		  echo $flnm_80BYTE
	  else
		  flnm_80BYTE=$flnm_80byte\.prc
		  echo $flnm_80BYTE
	  
	fi

#building regex for date searching
regex="{$yr_mnth}"\[0-9\]\[0-9\]

#building date searching regex list file
xtr_regex="${xtr_flptrn1}${inst_nmb}-${regex}\.${list_file}"

cmptl_extr_list_file="${xfile_pth}"/"${xtr_regex}"	#storing complete file name with path into a variable

echo $cmptl_extr_list_file

#grepping the filename from list file
/bin/grep "${flnm_80BYTE}" "${cmptl_extr_list_file}"

NAME
echo - echo arguments to standard output SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/echo [-n] [argument] DESCRIPTION
echo writes its arguments, separated by BLANKs and terminated by a NEWLINE, to the standard output. echo is useful for producing diagnostics in command files and for sending known data into a pipe, and for displaying the contents of envi- ronment variables. For example, you can use echo to determine how many subdirectories below the root directory (/) is your current directory, as follows: o echo your current-working-directory's full pathname o pipe the output through tr to translate the path's embedded slash-characters into space-characters o pipe that output through wc -w for a count of the names in your path. example% /usr/bin/echo "echo $PWD | tr '/' ' ' | wc -w" See tr(1) and wc(1) for their functionality. The shells csh(1), ksh(1), and sh(1), each have an echo built-in command, which, by default, will have precedence, and will be invoked if the user calls echo without a full pathname. /usr/ucb/echo and csh's echo() have an -n option, but do not understand back-slashed escape characters. sh's echo(), ksh's echo(), and /usr/bin/echo, on the other hand, understand the black-slashed escape characters, and ksh's echo() also understands a as the audible bell character; however, these commands do not have an -n option. OPTIONS
-n Do not add the NEWLINE to the output. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWscpu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
csh(1), echo(1), ksh(1), sh(1), tr(1), wc(1), attributes(5) NOTES
The -n option is a transition aid for BSD applications, and may not be supported in future releases. SunOS 5.11 3 Aug 1994 echo(1B)
