    Hi @Naresh y

    Please try the following expression:

    (DT_DBDATE)(SUBSTRING([column_name],1,4) + "-" +  
     SUBSTRING([column_name],5,2) + "-" + SUBSTRING([column_name],7,2))

    Hi @Naresh y ,

    Right click, Show Advanced Editor in the Data Conversion.

    And then Goto Input and Output Properties---Expand Data Conversion Output and click on the date column---Set FastParse to True in the Custom Properties.
