Why is my iPhone charging beyond the set 80% limit?
Today, I faced an issue where the charge went beyond 80% even I opted the “80%” charging optimisation in settings

That's correct. It WILL on occasion charge past 80% as it is purposely designed to do when using the 80% limit charging.
Read this:
About 80% Limit with iPhone 15 models
With iPhone 15 models, you can choose between Optimized Battery Charging, 80% Limit, and None.
When you choose 80% Limit, your iPhone will charge up to about 80 percent and then stop charging. If the battery charge level gets down to 75 percent, charging will resume until your battery charge level reaches about 80 percent again.
With 80% Limit enabled, your iPhone will occasionally charge to 100 percent to maintain accurate battery state-of-charge estimates.
