Hi Ajay,

It is difficult to push a topspin ball because the ball will go up high.  You are better to block this ball.  Take a look at our lesson on the Backhand Block.

If you do want to push it you do need to come down very vertical with your stroke.  You will need to have really relaxed hands as well.
