Why Eff-date column is in as Char?
Please look at the manual for Date and conversion functions. |

If you know the position in Eff-date where day will come use Substr
select * from table where
substr(Eff_date,1,2)= char(day(current date));
assuming the eff-date is of format DD-MM-YYYY... |

That will only work if there is just 1 months worth of data in the table.
What format is EFF_DATE in (mm/dd/yyyy yyyy-mm-dd etc)? |
