[Rajesh Billa]

Please suggest me.

Sharded or not?  Replica set or not?  What version and what storage engine?

There isn't specifically metadata that records do creation but there are ways to figure it out (depending on the answers to the questions above.

Not sharded nor Replica . 3.0.4 version and on ubuntu storage

By storage engine I meant MMAP or WiredTiger.

You can check creation date of the DB file on disk to figure out when
it was first written to (which is the same as when it was created).
