If you have a original invoice then definitely allowed.
If you do not have original invoice but have a duplicate - then you are at some kind of risk.
But during any assessment or scrutiny the officer may not check each and every invoice unless he has a doubt that some expenditure is claimed wrongly.
For E.G in construction of building you have shown only cement purchase and there is very little purchase of sand etc.

If Duplicate copy is issued by the same person with authorised signatory(with stamp), then it can be considered.
