I got the solution, In my code, i use both createAttachment and addAttachment, thats why my mail send with duplicate attachment. Remove addAttachment and its working fine.

$fileContents = file_get_contents("public/uploads/Mailexcel/".$name);
                $file = $mail->createAttachment($fileContents);
                $file->filename = "excel.xlsx";
                $mail->addAttachment($file);   // Remove this 
                $mail->send();
