How to tune not in query

Question

Please tune my query.It took 17 sec for execution

  SELECT grirno, grirdate
    FROM grirmain
   WHERE     grirno NOT IN
                 (SELECT grirno
                    FROM grir_pass
                   WHERE ins_check IS NOT NULL AND grirdate > '01-apr-2013')
         AND grirno IS NOT NULL
         AND chkuser IS NOT NULL
         AND grirdate > '01-apr-2013'
ORDER BY TO_NUMBER (SUBSTR (GRIRNO,INSTR (GRIRNO,'/',1,1)+ 1,(  INSTR (GRIRNO,'/',1,2)- INSTR (GRIRNO,'/',1,1)- 1))) DESC

I recommend writing this using NOT EXISTS:

    SELECT m.grirno, m.grirdate
    FROM grirmain m
    WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
                      FROM grir_pass p
                      WHERE g.grirno = p.grirno AND
                            p.ins_check IS NOT NULL AND
                            p.grirdate > DATE '2018-04-01'
                      ) AND
          m.grirno IS NOT NULL AND
          m.chkuser IS NOT NULL AND
          m.grirdate > DATE '2018-04-01'
ORDER BY TO_NUMBER(SUBSTR (GRIRNO,INSTR (GRIRNO,'/',1,1)+ 1,(  INSTR (GRIRNO,'/',1,2)- INSTR (GRIRNO,'/',1,1)- 1))) DESC;

Then, you want indexes on grir_pass(grirno, grirdate, ins_check) and grirmain(grirno, grirdate, chkuser).
