If the data is in date format then use the

month(StartDate) will give month

day(StartDate) will give day but if the data is not in date format then definitely you need to contact your database team

If you go to excel file. right click on cell -> Format cells -> You will see the format of date is "DD/MM/YYYY"

so startdate here is 1-Jan-2016 and EndDate is 12-Jan-2016
