Thanks @rbatte1 and @MadeInGermany
I posted the question in Unix StackExchange as well, and found the solution. I have posted the final script there in case it's helpful for others with same issue/question.
I am unable to paste the web link to the StackExchange thread here since I guess I have to have at least 5 posts, which I don't. I wish I was able to provide the link so that it would have been helpful to others stumbling on the post in future.

Thanks @rbatte1 for your help as well, but unfortunately even stat is not available in HP-UX version we have.

Hello,
How do I convert unix timestamp value to 'normal' date format - to get year month and day values ?
Looks like it's easy to do using GNU date (linux systems). But how do I do tthis on AIX ?
I don't want to write C program, any ways to do that using unix shells ?
