Hi Sreedevi,
   1) Once you have alv report displayed in the screen.
   2) Click button 'View' ( next to print button) on application toolbar
   3) Select Excel in Place
   4) This will download the same format as of Report
I hope your ALV have all the Standard functions in Toolbar. If not copy the status from and get the function as mentioned above.
Program - SAPLSALV
Status - STANDARD
