Unable to open BIRT generated xls file in MS Excel [message #1862352]

I am using BIRT 4.4.2 with below render option for excel to generate the xls file.

EXCELRenderOption options = new EXCELRenderOption();
options.setWrappingText(false);
options.setOutputFormat("xls");

While opening the file I am getting the warning message as

The file format and extension of 'Statement.xls' don't match. Files may have been corrupted or not safe. Please do not open unless you trust the source. Do you still want to open it?

This problem prevents the file from being uploaded into the banking facilities to create bank transfers.

Please assist me in fixing this problem.
