Why do you have a loop within the elsif block. ?
For every non-match it will write out all the records
for my $row (1..$row_max){
   my $valA = $sheet->{Cells}[$row][0]->{Val}; 
   my $valB = $sheet->{Cells}[$row][1]->{Val};
   # ...
   $worksheet1->write ($write_row, 0, "$valA");
   $worksheet1->write ($write_row, 1, "$valB");
   $write_row++;
   # ...
 }

Try 
my $write_row = 1;
for my $row (1..$row_max){
  my $valA = $sheet->{Cells}[$row][0]->{Val}; 
  my $valB = $sheet->{Cells}[$row][1]->{Val};
  # does this value exist in Col D
  if (exists $colD{$valA}) {
    my $xlrow = $row+1;
    print FILE "price change [A$xlrow]=[D$colD{$valA}] Value=$valB\n";
  } else {
     # ...
     $worksheet1->write ($write_row, 0, "$valA");
     $worksheet1->write ($write_row, 1, "$valB");
     $write_row++;
     # ...
  }
}
