actually sir i always use my notebook at home,so i think its batter to use it without battery and prefer to use AC plug in.according to you thats mean there is no harm to my notebbook if i use my notebook continuosly on AC plug in.but when i asked same question on call to a hp technician,he told me that without using battery your notebook can be harm by continuosly AC plug in.are you sure about that please give me complete detail about that.because in specs of my notebook its not clarified that battery is removable or not?

Yes the battery will act as a kind of uninterruptable power supply so that if power suddenly goes off your laptop will not crash and yes it is possible that can protect against damage. But just using the laptop plugged in on AC will not harm it, the harm comes from losing power.
If you gave the correct model number I am 100% sure it is a removeable battery. Flip the laptop over on its back. See the little latches. Slide them over and the battery can pop out.
People greatly overthink this battery thing. Set it and forget it. Leave it in. Use the laptop as it was designed. Enjoy.
Bujt if you want to wring every last minute of use out of the battery, run it down to about 50% and store it away, bringing it out only when you want to travel.

Once again, it is OK to use the laptop with the battery removed. The risk you run is a power outage and sudden hard shutdown. Desktop users face the same risk and many buy a UPS battery backup. A laptop already has one built in.
No danger of overcharging. The battery has a smart chip that prevents that. Having the laptop with the battery in it and used at a desk, always on AC power will result in a number of small charge/recharge cycles which will shorten the life of the battery a little bit. Not enough to worry about, in my opinion.
Again, don't overthink.
