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.

Anticipation
How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
