LightYellow is not in default color palette. Please check Color and Palette for more information.

So please change your code to:

excel.ChangePalette(Color.LightYellow, 55)

cells.Columns(8).Style.ForegroundColor = Color.LightYellow

cells.Columns(8).Style.Pattern = BackgroundType.Solid

Please try to change this line code:

excel.ChangePalette(Color.Gold, 55)

to

excel.ChangePalette(Color.Gold, 54)

And you can try this attached fix with the following code:

style.VerticalAlignment = TextAlignmentType.Bottom

style.ForegroundColor = excel.GetMatchingColor(Color.Gold)

style.Pattern = BackgroundType.Solid
