ANSWER:

If this is in loud prayers, the prayer is valid even if you didn’t read it as the recitation of the imam is sufficient for those who are praying behind him. 

But if it is a silent rakah, not reciting the fatiha voids the rakah as it is a pillar and you must offer another rakah for that if you are certain that you didn’t recite it. 

I know that salaah without surah Fatiha is invalid, sometimes i forget to read after the imam reads and sometimes I’m doubting whether I read or not. Shall I repeat the Salaah or pray two sajda after salaam. Please advise i get this frequently.
