Thanks for the solution Alan.

I also got 2 other methods which are given below:

Method 1:

require 'date'

temp = Date::today+1
puts(temp.strftime("%d-%b-%Y").upcase)

Method 2: (I got it from this group itself)

require 'date'

#Date Add Function
def date_add(mth,day,yr)
  #Set Date Variable
  @new_date = Date.today
  #Month calculations
  if mth != 0
    @new_date = @new_date >> mth
  end
  #Day calculation
  if day != 0
    @new_date = @new_date.+(day)
  end
  #Year calculation
  if yr != 0
    @new_date = @new_date >> yr * 12
  end
  #Returns new date
  return @new_date
end
@new_date = date_add(0,0,0)
puts @new_date
puts @new_date.strftime("%d-%b-%Y")
