@Vinay_Kumar please provide more info. You are writing the the ArcGIS REST JS forum, are you using this technology? This is mainly to access ArcGIS REST/web services. 

What is the File Object? Is it the KML? It is hosted in ArcGIS?

Please share as much information as you can (to help us to help you) 😉.

Like User will upload the KML file we need to display on the ArcGIS REST JS Map. It was not hosted in ArcGIS. Is there an alternative without hosting?

I think you are talking about the ArcGIS Maps SDK for JS and not ArcGIS REST JS, are you?

If that's the case, the Maps SDK which is for client-side applications (UI) with maps have a KMLLayer class you can use to load data from an external source.

Sorry for the inconveniences.
