    Hi Lavanya,

    You better try with OpenXml open source library to read a excel file. This is available in nugget "DocumentFormat.OpenXml". The below url will help you to read a excel file using openxml.

    Hi,

    If you do not want to install Excel on server then you can use OpenXml as Saravanan suggest. There are also 3rd party libraries if you do not want to handle with lots of code.
