Hii, thanks for reply
Insert column is only useful for tables ,but in my excel sheet tables are not there

You just has to create a datatable output variable for the excel and pass that variable in “insert column” activity.
Any excel template you have.

Thank you so much for the solution.Is there any possibility to insert between two columns.

You could do that but its bit messy
either use macros to swap between column or you need to use inbuilt shortcut key of excel and use send hotkey to perform the same.
