Hi Rahul,

The Reverse pendulum serve is difficult until you practice it a lot.

If it is hitting the edge a lot open the face of the racket more to the ball.  So get the bat heading more out to the side than forward.  This will change the angle of your bat to stop you from hitting the edge so much.
