I have Unity Pro license with Android support. When Unity makes a release build for a platform, how is that I know that build was made using my license ? How to know if someone is using a authentic license or hacked license ? Will such information be stored within the build ?

Literally, this question doesn't make any sense. Unity do not need to use your license to build their software. They own the IP rights to their software, and don't require anyone's Unity license to permit them to do anything.
You probably meant to ask if your license permits you to use a specific Unity build on a particular platform. The answer to that would be in your license agreement with Unity. I suggest that you read the licensing FAQs, and if that doesn't answer your question, then ask an IP lawyer to provide you with an answer.
How to know if someone is using a authentic license or hacked license ?
You cannot tell if someone else is using a hacked license. (And I don't see why you would need to know ... or why you have any right to know.)
How do you know if you are using a genuine license? If you got it directly from Unity, then it will be genuine. Otherwise, I guess you could ask Unity to validate your license for you ...
Will such information be stored within the build ?
Within the release build of Unity that you are using? No! That's not how license mechanisms work (in general).
