C#

System.IO.StringWriter sw = new System.IO.StringWriter();
        System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter htw = new System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter(sw);

        // Render grid view control.
        reportGrid.RenderControl(htw);

        // Write the rendered content to a file.
        string renderedGridView = sw.ToString();
        File.WriteAllText(Request.MapPath("~/Account/temp.xls"), renderedGridView);
        htw = new System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter(sw);

I used this and got data exported
But delete and edit buttons are still getting displayed in excel sheet
And only one page is getting added...

Thanks for the help...But there is still one problem...
When i try to open it it gives me the error...
The file name you are trying to open is in a different format than specified by extension....

replace response.addheader
as

Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=Report.xlsx");
Response.Charset = "";
// If you want the option to open the Excel file without saving than
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet";
