@SuppressWarnings("serial")
public class sampleServlet extends HttpServlet {
    @Override
    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp)
             {
        FileInputStream file;
        try {
            file = new FileInputStream(new File("C:\\Users\\Rajasekhar\\Desktop\\EmployeeDetails.xlsx"));
            Workbook book=new XSSFWorkbook(file);

        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            System.out.println("exception occured is "+e);      
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            System.out.println("exception occured is "+e);      
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

You need the file poi-ooxml.jar in your classpath as @Jens said.

You are using the correct import statement but it seems that you don't have the file poi-ooxml.jar in the class path of your web container.

If you are using maven, you should put this dependency in your pom.xml inside the <dependencies> tag:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
        <artifactId>poi</artifactId>
        <version>3.15</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
        <artifactId>poi-ooxml</artifactId>
        <version>3.15</version>
    </dependency>
