Other than what exactly?

It is less than intuitively obvious what exactly you desire as a column header. SHOW us what you want.

Column header is displayed by the tool you are using, not by SQL engine. For example, you can use predefined substitution variable _DATE, if you use SQL*Plus:

SQL> COLUMN DT HEAD "&&_DATE"
SQL> SELECT  'Check column header for today''s date' DT
  2    FROM  DUAL
  3  /

24-JUL-19
------------------------------------
Check column header for today's date

SQL>

Thank you Solomon Yakobson,

You derived result as i need, but i need to pass this query through java resultset so setting up column header which you advised is not feasible. Therefore, i requested sysdate in column header.

Thanks,
Chintan
