Hello Sudhir,

As you can see in our compatibility page you should use Akeeba Backup 4.2.4.

Keep in mind that old versions of Akeeba Backup do NOT receive bug fixes or feature updates. They are only provided as a temporary convenience measure until you can update your server to a newer version of PHP.

Please do ask your host to update your PHP version to 5.5 as soon as possible. PHP 5.3 is end of life for over a year. It is already considered insecure and unfit for use on production sites.
