Hi Ravi,
The basics of serving with penhold are the same as with the shakehand grip, especially for the forehand serves. In fact it is even easier because you don't need to change your grip at all.
Use plenty of forehand serves like the Pendulum and Reverse Pendulum serves.
The same applies with the return of serve. You are looking to be able to push the short serves short or flick them and if the ball comes long then you can make a topspin reply.
Take a look at our Lesson on the Penhold Grip.
