Two things:

use strict;
use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel;    

my $excel = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Workbook->Parse("C:\\au.xls");
die "Parse failed" unless defined $excel;
my $excel_file_url;

#start looping the Excel sheet
foreach my $sheet (@{$excel->{Worksheet}}) 
{
    $sheet->{MaxRow} ||= $sheet->{MinRow};
    print "$sheet->{MaxRow}\t$sheet->{MinRow}\n";
    foreach my $row ($sheet->{MinRow} .. $sheet->{MaxRow}) {
        print "Row:  $row\n";
        #looping for each row
        if ($row > 1) {
            #get the file url path from excel sheet at  corresponding 
+row,+ col 0
                my $cell_value=$sheet->{Cells}[$row][0];
                $excel_file_url=$cell_value->{Val};
                print $excel_file_url;
        }

       }
}
