With the knowledge of the content of your files it is easier to
answer. Running the script in trace mode is the best thing to do.
Anyway, I see that there are two problems here (which may or may not
be related to your problem):
> for trv in $(cat temp)
If expressions in `temp' contain spaces, they will be broken; this
would be better:
while read trv; do
....
done < temp
> grep $trv stock/nsedata/2008/05/20080512.txt >> lstock
$trv should be quoted, like this:
grep "$trv" ...
