Issue while using SUBPARTITION clause in the MERGE statement in PLSQL Code

Question

Hello All,
I am using the below code to update specific sub-partition data using oracle merge statements.
I am getting the sub-partition name and passing this as a string to the sub-partition clause.
The Merge statement is failing stating that the specified sub-partition does not exist. But the sub-partition do exists for the table.
We are using Oracle 11gr2 database.
Below is the code which I am using to populate the data.
declare
ln_min_batchkey PLS_INTEGER;
ln_max_batchkey PLS_INTEGER;
lv_partition_name VARCHAR2 (32767);
lv_subpartition_name VARCHAR2 (32767);
begin
FOR m1 IN ( SELECT (year_val + 1) AS year_val, year_val AS orig_year_val
FROM ( SELECT DISTINCT
TO_CHAR (batch_create_dt, 'YYYY') year_val
FROM stores_comm_mob_sub_temp
ORDER BY 1)
ORDER BY year_val)
LOOP
lv_partition_name :=
scmsa_handset_mobility_data_build.fn_get_partition_name (
p_table_name => 'STORES_COMM_MOB_SUB_INFO',
p_search_string => m1.year_val);
FOR m2
IN (SELECT DISTINCT
'M' || TO_CHAR (batch_create_dt, 'MM') AS month_val
FROM stores_comm_mob_sub_temp
WHERE TO_CHAR (batch_create_dt, 'YYYY') = m1.orig_year_val)
LOOP
lv_subpartition_name :=
scmsa_handset_mobility_data_build.fn_get_subpartition_name (
p_table_name => 'STORES_COMM_MOB_SUB_INFO',
p_partition_name => lv_partition_name,
p_search_string => m2.month_val);
                    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('The lv_subpartition_name => '||lv_subpartition_name||' and lv_partition_name=> '||lv_partition_name);
IF lv_subpartition_name IS NULL
THEN
                         DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('INSIDE IF => '||m2.month_val);
INSERT INTO STORES_COMM_MOB_SUB_INFO T1 (
t1.ntlogin,
t1.first_name,
t1.last_name,
t1.job_title,
t1.store_id,
t1.batch_create_dt)
SELECT t2.ntlogin,
t2.first_name,
t2.last_name,
t2.job_title,
t2.store_id,
t2.batch_create_dt
FROM stores_comm_mob_sub_temp t2
WHERE TO_CHAR (batch_create_dt, 'YYYY') = m1.orig_year_val
AND 'M' || TO_CHAR (batch_create_dt, 'MM') =
m2.month_val;
ELSIF lv_subpartition_name IS NOT NULL
THEN
                    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('INSIDE ELSIF => '||m2.month_val);
MERGE INTO (SELECT *
FROM stores_comm_mob_sub_info
SUBPARTITION (lv_subpartition_name)) T1 --> Issue Here
USING (SELECT *

ON (T1.store_id = T2.store_id
AND T1.ntlogin = T2.ntlogin)
WHEN MATCHED
THEN
UPDATE SET
t1.postpaid_totalqty =

+ NVL (t2.postpaid_totalqty, 0)),
t1.sales_transaction_dt =

t1.batch_create_dt =
GREATEST (

NVL (t2.batch_create_dt, t1.batch_create_dt))
WHEN NOT MATCHED
THEN
INSERT (t1.ntlogin,

VALUES (t2.ntlogin,

t2.last_name,
t2.job_title,
t2.store_id,
t2.batch_create_dt);
END IF;
END LOOP;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
end;
Much appreciate your inputs here.
Thanks,
