Hi Shong,
I figure out the issue.
My MS ecxel is 2007.
In Talend job I used the option write 2007 format but the file extension is .xls.
So texelinput componet is trying decode the file lower format but the actual content is is higher format
When I change the filename as *.xlsx it works.
Also when i got to prevous job and change the outpout file name string with .xlsx it works.
Thank you
Sanil

Do save your file with the format .xlsx and check the checkbox "read excel 2007"  and it works.

please check the screenshot below and let me know if the solution works.
