I doubt the default Excel import feature would even read any binary data from Excel file except ASCII or UTF characters.

You can create your own using the forge component Advanced Excel. I haven't used it for this feature but I think it should support to allow reading image binary data from the excel files. Just give it a try and see how it goes. Here's the link to it Advanced Excel Forge Component

Hi Shivam,

It seems you have a misunderstanding about images in an Excel sheet. Images in an Excel sheet are not part of any particular cell. At best, you can "lock" an image to a cell, so that it stays in that cell when it resizes, but they're still seperate from actual cell data. Therefore you cannot bootstrap images from an Excel. Please refer to Ajir Kurane's post above if you want to bootstrap images.
