if you can use vbscript,
for 1) to 3) , you can see here for some examples... using Date (eg DateAdd,Datediff) functions from vbscript.
for 4), you can see here

Sorry but i am not much familiar with VB scripts.
can we do the same by using batch file only.

if you are asking for a batch solution here, it shows you are not familiar with batch either. what makes you hesitate to learn about vbscript then? you are also expected to put in your own effort in the first place.
