for success scenario it will not return any exit because there will be scenario where daily and 25th will come in same time.
If the script_1.sh fails then it should exit post script_2.sh completes
Your answers above demonstrate a complete lack of understanding of how running commands in your main script works, how all three of the scripts invoked by your main script work, and how shell programming works.
All of the actions taken in your main script are run synchronously, so there is absolutely no chance that if script_1.sh fails (or if it succeeds) it will not exit before script_2.sh starts. But, of course, if the command in your main script:
is invoked at any time other than the first minute of 10 o'clock in the morning, none of your numbered scripts will ever be run anyway. I see no reason why this test should be included in your script nor anything in the description of your problem that would make such a test desirable. Every command that is run synchronously returns an exit code before the next command in your script starts. Always. Unconditionally.
If you can't figure out whether or not any of the shell scripts you are invoking in your main script succeeded, there is absolutely no way that you can record whether or not they succeeded so you can re-run them the next day if they failed.

LEARN ABOUT SUNOS
return
exit(1) User Commands exit(1)NAME
exit, return, goto - shell built-in functions to enable the execution of the shell to advance beyond its sequence of steps
SYNOPSIS
sh
exit [n]
return [n]
csh
exit [ ( expr )]
goto label
ksh
*exit [n]
*return [n]
DESCRIPTION
sh
exit will cause the calling shell or shell script to exit with the exit status specified by n. If n is omitted the exit status is that of
the last command executed (an EOF will also cause the shell to exit.)
return causes a function to exit with the return value specified by n. If n is omitted, the return status is that of the last command exe-
cuted.
csh
exit will cause the calling shell or shell script to exit, either with the value of the status variable or with the value specified by the
expression expr.
The goto built-in uses a specified label as a search string amongst commands. The shell rewinds its input as much as possible and searches
for a line of the form label: possibly preceded by space or tab characters. Execution continues after the indicated line. It is an error to
jump to a label that occurs between a while or for built-in command and its corresponding end.
ksh
exit will cause the calling shell or shell script to exit with the exit status specified by n. The value will be the least significant 8
bits of the specified status. If n is omitted then the exit status is that of the last command executed. When exit occurs when executing
a trap, the last command refers to the command that executed before the trap was invoked. An end-of-file will also cause the shell to exit
except for a shell which has the ignoreeof option (See set below) turned on.
return causes a shell function or '.' script to return to the invoking script with the return status specified by n. The value will be the
least significant 8 bits of the specified status. If n is omitted then the return status is that of the last command executed. If return
is invoked while not in a function or a '.' script, then it is the same as an exit.
On this man page, ksh(1) commands that are preceded by one or two * (asterisks) are treated specially in the following ways:
1. Variable assignment lists preceding the command remain in effect when the command completes.
2. I/O redirections are processed after variable assignments.
3. Errors cause a script that contains them to abort.
4. Words, following a command preceded by ** that are in the format of a variable assignment, are expanded with the same rules as a vari-
able assignment. This means that tilde substitution is performed after the = sign and word splitting and file name generation are not
performed.
