Perjury only when the evidence is proved false , not proved will not attract perjury.

Yes. Only the false statement on oath made with knowledge that the statement is false attarcts perjury.

No , false statement in a legal proceeding is not sufficient for defamation . You must prove publication for taking action against defamation.
