Hello Lakshmi,
Even we are facing this issue post-23D upgrade and, Oracle is investigating this which I found in the below Support document,
Excel output is generated with Junk characters when downloaded from the Report Job History page (Doc ID 2990643.1)
As an alternate, when you click on republish it downloads the correct file without any junk characters.
