If we paste and extend an LONG PIMPLES OX rubber on the sides of the blade, is it legally allowed by ITTF, is there any rule specifying this.

Hi Rajeev, You are not allowed to have the rubber over the edges. This is covered in the rules with Rule 2.4.5: The covering material shall extend up to but not beyond the limits of the blade, except that the part nearest the handle and gripped by the fingers may be left uncovered or covered with any material.
