The error message suggests that the user that actually executes the DataStage job lacks write permission to the Excel workbook. Check your Engine credentials.

I could see a zero kB file getting created. and i am able to create the same file as csv using sequential file stage.

Then the umask setting for the credentialled user may be incorrect; your job may have been able to create the file but not to write to the newly-created file. Check the permissions on the newly-created file.
