I created a oracle query which detects the start and end date for dayight saving. I eventually used this, and passed the current year so to detect start/end dates for daylight saving for each year.

I wanted to share the same with everyone.

select SYSDATE x, 0 r1 from dual where SYSDATE between (select decode(to_char(to_date('04/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY'),'D'),1,

to_date('04/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+7, 2,
to_date('04/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+6, 3,
to_date('04/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+5, 4,
to_date('04/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+4, 5,
to_date('04/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+3, 6,
to_date('04/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+2,
to_date('04/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY'))  sday1 from dual) and (select

decode(to_char(to_date('09/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY'),'D'),1,

to_date('09/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+7, 2,
to_date('09/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+6, 3,
to_date('09/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+5, 4,
to_date('09/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+4, 5,
to_date('09/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+3, 6,
to_date('09/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY')+2,
to_date('09/01/2003','MM/DD/YYYY'))  sday2 from dual);
