The below query gives me duplicate records as shown after the query, I need to select only DISTINCT records without using distinct keyword because if i use distinct the cost increases 10 fold (from 1000 to 11000), so can you guys suggest me anything ?

    select 
                fm.ds   as Functional_mgr,
                rp.ds   as Responsible_person,
                res.ds  as Resource_name,              
         from   ADM.MEMO_MV dup,
         
                av_element e1,
                av_element e2,
                
                av_resreq rq,
                
                adm.memo_alerts dma,
                
                av_resource fm,
                av_resource rp,
                av_resource res,
                
                av_resource rs
                
        where       dup.Project_Name    = rq.proj
            and     dup.Activity_Name   = rq.act            
            and     e1.resp1<>e2.resp1
            and     (e2.category = 'GT OBS' AND e2.element = dup.Activity_OBS)            
            and     nvl(dma.sent_flag,'N') = 'N'
            and     rs.rc02 not like '%D'
            and     rs.rc01 <> 'DEACT'                        
            and     fm.rn(+)   = e2.resp1
            and     rp.rn(+)   = dup.Responsible_person
            and     res.rn(+)  = rq.rn
            and     rq.ver in ( 0,97 )        


Gives me the following output:
FUNCTIONAL_MGR RESPONSIBLE_PERSON RESOURCE_NAME                 
  John             Maria               Young 
  John             Maria               Young 
  Jacob            Sam                 Michael 
  Jacob            Sam                 Michael


NOTE* I need to get the distinct values without using distinct because of the time and cost involved. There are around 200 to 1000 records


desired output

FUNCTIONAL_MGR RESPONSIBLE_PERSON RESOURCE_NAME                 
  John             Maria               Young 
  Jacob            Sam                 Michael

Why don't you remove duplicate records from your table?

If you don't want to include a distinct command, (or presumably GROUP BY or Analytics, as they will do similar operations) then you'll have to create a set of WHERE clauses that restrict you to non-duplicate rows.

And no, we don't know what you'll need to add to the WHERE clause.
You'll need to look in detail at al the columns from all the tables in the duplicate rows, and see what extra constraints you can add.

SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM av_resource rs
WHERE rs.rc02 not like '%D'
  AND rs.rc01 <> 'DEACT';

I bet this query will return 2.
As you included AV_RESOURCE table into query without joining conditions (just these filtering ones), it will make cartesian product with other resultset rows.
As you do not use its columns anywhere, it can be removed (if it is not simplification of the real problem).

There seems to be no restriction on e1, other than that it cannot be equal to e2.resp1

How about you post the explain plan of the query. As others have already mentioned it looks like you could have a cartesian product. I have noticed one more table which is not joined properly.
Quote:

...
adm.memo_alerts dma,
...
and nvl(dma.sent_flag,'N') = 'N'


Apart from the filter I cannot see any join condition with the main query.

Now let's try formating it and posting it.

We'd rather you did something like
EXPLAIN PLAN FOR <query>

SELECT * FROM table(dbms_xplan.display());
than just a dump from v$sql_plan
