Hello Sandeep,
Searching through the child records is not supported by the control. The search mechanism of RadGridView is tightly coupled to its filtering engine. It performs the search over the Items collection of the main grid. Moreover, the control is not aware of what element is defined within its HierarchyChildTemplate/RowDetailsTemplate. There is no easy way of achieving such functionality, so I can not suggest you a workaround for implementing custom search.
If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
