I opened a SR with oracle and they explained that it has nothing to do with
oracle database rather its something with the OS at client and ETL itself.
They mentioned its a known issue (though I didnt find this solution in
metalink)  and following is the action to be taken at the app server where
ETL runs.

Increase the free port range as follows:



Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).

Locate the following key in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

On the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following registry
value:



Edit -> New-> DWORD Value



Value Name: MaxUserPort Data Type: REG_DWORD Value: 65534

Valid Range: 5000-65534 (decimal) Default: 0x1388 (5000 decimal)



Description: This parameter controls the maximum port number used when an
application requests any

available user port from the system. Normally, ephemeral (that is,
short-lived) ports are allocated between the values of 1024 and 5000
inclusive.

------------------

The change is made and app server is rebooted after that. Datamart ETL is
yet to run, so fingers crossed :)
