Hi Ansh,

'i have a attandance sheet like this'
It would be helpful to show what your attandance sheet looks like.

What is entered in the cell, you want to determine the date of joining from?

EDIT: Ok, I just saw the screenshot you sent me in a pm. So you use column F to AJ for each of the days of the month. The rows are used for names. The entire table is filled with letters A, P, W/O and PH.

No idea what the letters stand for, but that doesn't matter much. In the formula below we are looking for the first occurance of the letter A:
=DATE(YEAR($F$12),MONTH($F$12),DAY(MATCH("A",F13:AJ13,0)))

For the formula to work, the date row needs to contain full dates. So enter 1/10/2021 and then give it a custom format (cell properties) of "d", so the cells will look the same as they are now.

Let us know if something is unclear.

Best regards,
Trowa
