Thanks a lot Don Cragun,
please find below the output

Code:
-bash-4.1$ uname -a
Linux ucsdv181.symprod.com 2.6.32-696.10.3.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Sep 21 12:12:50 EDT 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I tried your code and it worked perfectly fine.. just want to know couple of things in that script like

Code:
#!/bin/bash
for file in 010020*[_-]S[_-]*[_-]*[_-]*[_-][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][01][0-9][0-3][0-9][_-][0-2][0-9][0-6][0-9][0-6][0-9].txt
do	IFS='[_-]' --what is the use of IFS here
	set -- $file --What this command is doing
	unset IFS
	destination=/tmp/${1}_$2-$3-$4-$5
	mkdir -p "$destination"
	mv "$file" "$destination/$file"
done

Also, the first word in my file i.e
010020001_S-ABC-Sort-DEFAW_20170412_121224.txt need not to be start from these same values..what i am trying to say is

010020001_S-ABC-Sort-DEFAW_20170412_121224.txt
111020001_S-ABC-Sort-DEFAW_20180412_121224.txt
should be of same group and move to one dir instead of creating two directories..in first word only last 3 char matters to group them.
Again thanks
