If an individual received HRA from a company.And he showed that he paid rent aginst rented property.But that property is belong to the one of his family member.Then is it valid to give him a HRA by a co. or HRA deduction.If yes then which document is required?

There is no problem for the company to provide HRA exemption. Documents which are required are copy of rent receipt or lease deed.
But company needs to clarify with him that he is not coming in the defination of deemed owner u/s 27 of Income Tax Act, 1961. If he is deemed owner u/s 27 then deduction will not be allowed. But if he is not the deemed owner in that case HRA exemption will be allowed to him and amount of rent which is considered for his HRA exemption will be taxable in tha hands of the family member.
