You can compare just specified parts:

context.tblvalue.Any(x => x.date.Year == data.Year 
                        && x.date.Month == data.Month 
                        && x.date.Day == data.Day);

EDIT: You can also try the following:

context.tblvalue.Any(x => EntityFunctions.TruncateTime(x.date) == data.Date);

Another approach:

context.tblvalue.Any(x =>  SqlFunctions.DatePart("year", x.date)  == data.Year 
                        && SqlFunctions.DatePart("month", x.date) == data.Month 
                        && SqlFunctions.DatePart("day", x.date)   == data.Day);
