I have the tried the below code for my requirment.
Need to read the file name from the input.txt and check whether the file exist in the below directory.
This is interesting... You have shown us six lines of output from a command that should produce no more than four lines of output.
And, you say you want to process a file named input.txt, but the code that follows never reads that file. Instead, it reads two other files named project.txt and projection.txt. And, with default fields separators, awk will see only one field in each of the above lines; but your code below is using awk to extract the 3rd field from the 1st line of the file named projection.txt. Does the 1st line in project.txt have a different format than the lines you have shown us above in input.txt? If so, please show us the first few lines of input.txt instead of the last few lines.
Does the echo in your script print the value of $week that you were hoping to get? (If not; what does it print and what did you want it to print?)

What is the relationship between the input.txt you showed us above and the projection.txt, and project.txt files read by your script?
When your script exits, which of the files it produces are needed for something else; and which are just temporary files only needed within the above script?
Following may help you in same, if you have any queries then please be more specific in your requirement with complete details so that we can help you. Here I am requesting user itself to enter the initial path.

hi ravi,
sorry for not giving requirement properly.
In the input file , there are two keywords present in the file , "PROD" and "ADUS".
Could you please let me know how o hard code the directory for the above scenario.
if PROM name is present in the file it should check in
If ADUS name is present in the file it should check in
cat input.txt | tail -4
HTS40002.W1978.PROM
HTS40003.W1978.PROM
HTS40004.W1978.ADUS
HTS40003.W1978.PROM
HTS40004.W1978.ADUS

Reason: changes
Perhaps something like:
Note that -s tests for existence of a file with size greater than 0. If you just want to know if the file exists, change the:
to:
and if you want to know if it exists and is a regular file:

Hi arun888,
It is hard to keep up with your changing requirements.
First every input line has three fields separated by periods. Then there are three fields and sometimes the 3rd field is empty. And now, sometimes there are three fields (for PROM files) and sometimes there are four fields (for ADUS files).
Instead of showing us examples of lines from your input file, please describe in English the format of the filenames in that file:
How many (period separated) fields can there be in your filenames?
Is the 2nd field (the string between the 1st and 2nd periods in the filename) always the week number?
Is the last field always the field that contains ADUS or PROM (or none of the above)?
Can any field other than the last field be empty (i.e., in addition to HTS40007.W1978. could there be a filename like HTS40006.W1978..PROM)?
With a clear description of the input you're trying to process, we can write code to process it. Without a clear description, we'll never know if we have code that can cope with a filename format we haven't seen before.
