Hi Akshat,

It is best to topspin if you can.  If you topspin it you are in control of the rally from the start.  You need o make sure the ball is long enough to enable you to do that.  Usually if the ball will only bounce once on your side it is long enough to topspin.

Fake Movements

After the ball has left the server's bat, they can no longer affect the spin that is on the ball. Any movements after the contact are referred to as fake movements and are meant to confuse you as the receiver. You need to focus on the contact to read the spin.
