Export MySQL data to CSV File using PHP (on Button Click) with specific Header and footer values

I have a SQL table which I want to export into .csv using PHP (on Button Click) with specific header and footer values (Data shown in image)
Example:

The following columns:

1.Name of Carrier
2.Total Inbound Paid minutes
3.Transit Traffic minutes
4.Inbound minutes handed over
5.No. of Answered Calls
are present in database.

The Month and Year present in header should fetch the previous month and corresponding Year.
In footer a specific text provided should be present.
How do I export the data in the format given in the image?

I have tried the code for exporting into .xls file:

<?php
	/*******EDIT LINES 3-8*******/
	$DB_Server = "localhost"; //MySQL Server
	$DB_Username = "root"; //MySQL Username
	$DB_Password = "root";             //MySQL Password
	$DB_DBName = "billing_db";         //MySQL Database Name
	//$DB_TBLName = "analysis"; //MySQL Table Name
	$filename = "final_f1_data";         //File Name
	/*******YOU DO NOT NEED TO EDIT ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE*******/
	//create MySQL connection
	$sql = 'SELECT * FROM `final_f1_data`';
	$Connect = @mysql_connect($DB_Server, $DB_Username, $DB_Password) or die("Couldn't connect to MySQL:<br>" . mysql_error() . "<br>" . mysql_errno());
	//select database
	$Db = @mysql_select_db($DB_DBName, $Connect) or die("Couldn't select database:<br>" . mysql_error(). "<br>" . mysql_errno());
	//execute query
	$result = @mysql_query($sql,$Connect) or die("Couldn't execute query:<br>" . mysql_error(). "<br>" . mysql_errno());
	$file_ending = "xls";
	//header info for browser
	header("Content-Type: application/xls");
	header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$filename.xls");
	header("Pragma: no-cache");
	header("Expires: 0");
	/*******Start of Formatting for Excel*******/
	//define separator (defines columns in excel & tabs in word)
	$sep = "\t"; //tabbed character
	//start of printing column names as names of MySQL fields
	for ($i = 0; $i < mysql_num_fields($result); $i++) {
	echo mysql_field_name($result,$i) . "\t";
	}
	print("\n");
	//end of printing column names
	//start while loop to get data
	    while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))
	    {
	        $schema_insert = "";
	        for($j=0; $j<mysql_num_fields($result);$j++)
	        {
	            if(!isset($row[$j]))
	                $schema_insert .= "NULL".$sep;
	            elseif ($row[$j] != "")
	                $schema_insert .= "$row[$j]".$sep;
	            else
	                $schema_insert .= "".$sep;
	        }
	        $schema_insert = str_replace($sep."$", "", $schema_insert);
	        $schema_insert = preg_replace("/\r\n|\n\r|\n|\r/", " ", $schema_insert);
	        $schema_insert .= "\t";
	        print(trim($schema_insert));
	        print "\n";
	    }
	?>

I would play with csv files first

Your code is a security nightmare! Stop using the dangerous obsolete mysql code and use PDO with prepared statements. Stop outputting internal system errors to the user. Stop suppressing errors.
