Amit,
Yes I got caught by that too ! The cron does not run
the profile, so it does not get the path.
So in your script - if its ksh - make the first line
read something like :-

. ${HOME}/.profile

The first . means it stays in this shell.
Alternatively, why not create a script in
/usr/local/etc and make anyone who needs Oracle call
it in their .profile .
Then the first line of your shell script can call it
also and all will be well.

cheers
