You need to set the page style to plain after redefining it using fancyhdr's \fancypagestyle{plain}{...} command. This is described in the fancyhdr documentation (section 7 Redefining plain style, p 7-8):
\usepackage{fancyhdr,graphicx,lastpage}% http://ctan.org/pkg/{fancyhdr,graphicx,lastpage}
\fancypagestyle{plain}{
\fancyhf{}% Clear header/footer
\fancyhead[R]{\includegraphics[width=\linewidth,height=5pt]{example-image-a}}% Right header
\fancyfoot[L]{Name Firstname - v1.0 \\ Date}% Left footer
\fancyfoot[R]{\thepage\ / \pageref{LastPage}}% Right footer
}
\pagestyle{plain}% Set page style to plain.
This should set the page style to plain for the entire document, including the first page of \chapters.
If you wish to have certain chapters to have a different (empty, say) page style, you would have to set this manually. For the \tableofcontents though, this is a bit tricky, since using
\thispagestyle{empty}\tableofcontents
or
\tableofcontents\thispagestyle{empty}
would set it to empty either too early, or perhaps too late, depending on the choice. This is because of the construction of the command \tableofcontents (from report.cls - your document class):
\newcommand\tableofcontents{%
\if@twocolumn
\@restonecoltrue\onecolumn
\else
\@restonecolfalse
\fi
\chapter*{\contentsname
\@mkboth{%
\MakeUppercase\contentsname}{\MakeUppercase\contentsname}}%
\@starttoc{toc}%
\if@restonecol\twocolumn\fi
}
Note that \tableofcontents executes \chapter*, which in itself initiates a page break via \clearpage (or \cleardoublepage, depending on your document class options, like openright). So one would have to insert the page style somewhere around the place where the ToC is being built... in this case, at \@starttoc{toc}. You can do this with an etoolbox patch (there are other ways as well):
\usepackage{etoolbox}% http://ctan.org/pkg/etoolbox
\makeatletter
\patchcmd{\tableofcontents}% <cmd>
{\@starttoc}% <search>
{\thispagestyle{empty}\@starttoc}
{}{}% <success><failure>
\makeatother
Taking all of this into consideration, you might be after the following setup:
\documentclass[twoside,openright]{report}
\usepackage{fancyhdr,lipsum}% http://ctan.org/pkg/{fancyhdr,lipsum}
\usepackage{graphicx,lastpage}% http://ctan.org/pkg/{graphicx,lastpage}
\usepackage{etoolbox}% http://ctan.org/pkg/etoolbox
\fancypagestyle{plain}{
\fancyhf{}% Clear header/footer
\fancyhead[R]{\includegraphics[width=\linewidth,height=5pt]{example-image-a.pdf}}% Right header
\fancyfoot[L]{Name Firstname - v1.0 \\ Date}% Left footer
\fancyfoot[R]{\thepage\ / \pageref{LastPage}}% Right footer
}
\pagestyle{plain}
\makeatletter
\patchcmd{\tableofcontents}% <cmd>
{\@starttoc}% <search>
{\thispagestyle{empty}\@starttoc}
{}{}% <success><failure>
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{A chapter}\lipsum[1-5]
\end{document}
Of course, this could be changed (even improved) if you don't have a title, or if there was more information on your document structure.
Some references regarding the above usages:

\makeatletterand\makeatotherdo? etoolboxdocumentation regarding command patching via\patchcmd(section 3.4 Patching, p 11)
Some other things to consider:
- Using
\linewidthif you wish to have a header image that spans the entire width of the text block (rather than8cm). - Using the
pagesltspackage which provides aVeryLastPagelabel, depending on whether or not you have unprocessed floats at the end of your report.
The first page of a chapter is typeset using the plain pagestyle so that it stands out from other pages. You can modify it with something like:
\fancypagestyle{plain}{%
\fancyfoot[LE, RO]{Apurba Paul}
\fancyfoot[LO, RE]{Using fancyhdr}}
to change the style so your footer is also on the first page of a chapter, leaving the default header unchanged.
Best Answer
For example, if you use
fancyhdr, you could writein your preamble. Then, all first pages of chapters, which would have plain style, would show fancy style. Or use
\fancypagestyle{plain}{}, see thefancyhdrmanual for this.Or use
\let\ps@plain\ps@headingsinstead, or generally use your page style name after\ps@.\ps@plainstands for plain page style and can be reassigned this way.
