ISP mean i need to tell web hosting company or need to make changes in zone file for that web site ?

if its web hosting company, then yes, you will have to tell web hosting company,

if its shared hosting then they would not be able to set rever dns which will map to your domain.

to set a reverse dns which will map to your domain name, you will have a dedicted IP ( static Ip)

yes i my web site have dedicated IP.

I dont need to do any thing with web site registration company where i set DNS for my web site ?

if its Dedicated then , you should tell your hosting company to setup a Reverse Dns

also, if they provide any control panel, if there is any options call , rever dns setup , or PTR record ..

best would not just give them a call and ask them

Yes I have access of direct admin but not admin access so i cant access zone file.

in that case , better to speak with hosting company

You need to contact your hosting company and ask them to add a PTR record for your dedicated ip address that will point to your domain.

That's It
