Research use of SQL*Loader. It allows you to load data stored in a file on a client computer into an Oracle database.

Your Unix script would simply call SQLLDR executable.

I my machine SQLLDR is not there.
And the use of sqlldr is prohibited.

I am in great trouble..
Tomorrow i have to submit the procedure or script which loads the data into the Oracle server via Oracle client without using sqlldr command.

Sad

Do you have access to database server (a computer)? If so, you could utilize external tables feature.

No sever access is restricted.

Only sql connection is provided.
And we have to use only scripts to pass data(.csv file) from my PC to the oracle database via terminal!!

Convert your CSV file into INSERT statement using the standard Unix program (grep, sed, awk...). It is not so difficult.

$ cat dept.txt
10;MyDept

$ sed -e 's/^/insert into dept values (/' -e "s/;/,'/" -e "s/$/');/" dept.txt
insert into dept values (10,'MyDept');
