By Ravi

This following information will help you :

IF you are using TOAD then 
1) create a table with the same column of excel data.
2) from Tools  tab u can find import option where u can specify your excel path and table name .

From SQL Plus

If you do not have access to create directory then ask your DBA he will create directory and share that path to you so u can place ur source file.

1) Place the excel sheet in your server directory

conn / as sysdba

CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY ext AS 'c:\external';

GRANT READ ON DIRECTORY ext TO your user;
GRANT WRITE ON DIRECTORY ext TO your user;

2) Create External table to export the excel data to database.  After creation it will store data external, if want that data then store in permanent table as

create table permanent table
as
select * from external table.

CREATE TABLE ext_tab (
empno  CHAR(4),
ename  CHAR(20),
job    CHAR(20),
