Since this is a rectangular niche, why don't you use the W Niche 11 part? It has the proper 2D Symbol. Otherwise you need to write a 2D Script for the part (this one you posted has only a 2D Symbol) to pick up the fill of the wall.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

i am able to add fill by applying the fill in 2d symbol window
Sometimes the fill pattern does not match the wall fill pattern.
and i get a line on both side of niche.I have changed its colour to white(255) but it is still visible. how to remove that line?

Again, why don't you use the W Niche 11 part? It has a working 2D Symbol that fixes the problems in your part.
