Hi Raghav,
To do a cut service you need to brush under the ball. Think about making the ball spin backwards by doing this. A good way to start is by standing away from the table and getting the ball to spin on the floor and see if you can get it to come back towards you. If you can, then you are getting the right contact to generate backspin or for a Cut serve.
