Dear Athul R S,
Why you think, it violates conservation of momentum. In the phenomenon of photon absorption by electron no external agency is exerting force, hence obviously momentum will be conserved there.
Second thing photon is a packet of energy only. Its rest mass is zero.
Absorption of photon (energy) by electron in a matter increases its kinetic energy only. If total energy of electron exceeds a particular value constant for a given matter (work function), lector leave the surface of matter (called photoelectron). If not electron goes in excited state for
10-8 s. Again come back to normal state by exciting photon of same energy.
In this way electron interact with photon.
