Hi Rahul,
In this situation you should topspin the ball on the return.
If you brush th eball fast you will eliminate any spin that they put on with the serve.
Attacking the return is the only option otherwise you will leave yourself open to be attacked.

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.
