Hi Atul,
One of the main things here is to watch the ball carefully when it is spinning so that you can track its path accurately. The spin will make the ball curve or dip and if you are not used to the spin it will feel like the ball is going all over the place. In fact it will follow a predictable path. You will learn this path the more you see that particular serve.
Try to develop your own serves as well. Take a look through our Introduction to Serving section to get a whole lot of tips on this.

The Kicker Serve
The kicker serve is one of our "must learn" serves. It's fast, fun, and has lots of topspin. It can be dangerous because if it's not fast enough and if you don't surprise your opponent then they may be able to attack it forcefully putting you on the defensive straight away. Used well though, and sparingly, it can be a great weapon. It can win you a point outright and it will stop your opponent from standing over the table waiting for your short serves since they need to be ready for anything.
