Dropping your hand on serve

HI JEFF & ALOIS,
I want to ask that my opponent lifts the ball above his head and removes his hand quickly downwards and strikes the ball after it has fallen more than 6 inches, it is legal service.

Hi Rahul,
This is an illegal serve. The rule says that the ball must be projected upwards. He is not doing this, so it would be your point.
