The .sh extension is one convention for identifying Unix shell scripts. The scripts themselves may be sh, bash or ksh scripts and still be given .sh as an extension. While file extensions for shell scripts are entirely optional, some Unix systems administrators use them consistently.

I am new to shell scripting - so where to store shell script file, what is its extension and how does it run. Any type help appreciated.

Shell scripts are generally stored in bin directories. If they're intended to be used by all users, /usr/local/bin is a good place. If they're for your use alone, create a bin directory in your home directory and store them there. To be most useful, your PATH (environment variable) should include the bin directories so that you can invoke the scripts without having to include a complete path.
