@Ankita_Biswas,

Let say you are getting year of today’s date in an integer variable

Create “year” as Integer
Then using an assign activity get “year” as DateTime.Now.Year
Create firstDay as DataTime variable
Then using an assign activity get “firstDay” as = New DateTime(year, 1, 1)
Create lastDay as DataTime variable
Then using an assign activity get “lastDay” as = DateTime(year, 12, 31)

1. define integer variable called currentYear, assign value to current year e.g. 2020

2. to get first date of year in dd-MMM-yy format:
   New DateTime(currentYear,1,Date.DaysInMonth(currentYear,1)).ToString("dd-MMM-yy")

3. to get last date of year in dd-MMM-yy format:
   New DateTime(currentYear,12,Date.DaysInMonth(currentYear,12)).ToString("dd-MMM-yy")
   

   

result of this sequence
