It is known that Excel sheets can display a maximum of 1 million rows. Is there any row limit for csv data, i.e. does Excel allow more than 1 million rows in csv format?
One more question: About this 1 million limitation; Can Excel hold more than 1 million data rows, even though it only displays a maximum of 1 million data rows?

CSV files have no limit of rows you can add to them. Excel won't hold more that the 1 million lines of data if you import a CSV file having more lines. Excel will actually ask you whether you want to proceed when importing more than 1 million data rows.
The default maximum rows in CSV export is 65536.
Excel cannot handle more than 1,048,576 rows. That is the maximum you can have in a worksheet.
You may know that Excel has a physical limit of 1 million rows (well, its 1,048,576 rows). But that doesn't mean you can't analyze more than a million rows in Excel. The trick is to use Data Model.
CSV files have no limit of rows you can add to them. Excel won't hold more that the 1 million lines of data if you import a CSV file having more lines.
Excel will actually ask you whether you want to proceed when importing more than 1 million data rows. It suggests to import the remaining data by using the text import wizard again - you will need to set the appropriate line offset.

In my memory, excel (versions >= 2007) limits the power 2 of 20: 1.048.576 lines.
Csv is over to this boundary, like ordinary text file. So you will be care of the transfer between two formats.
