Manisha - I think these messages in the archives are very similar to
your problem.

As well as this bug report:

Basically you can't validate each element of an array of String[] with
the validator, because it does not have getters/setters for its value.
Your choices are to use the validate method in the action form to do
the
validation, or to setup a new class with an amount property and
getters/setters for the amounts, then use an array of that instead of
String[]
