While serving in table tennis, if the ball bounces more than 1 time in opponent's court (IN SERVICE) then who will get a point, the server or the opponent?

Hi Maaz,

This is the servers point.  You are allowed to serve it as short as you want.  After one bounce the receiver has to reach it and return it to stay in the point.

Hitting the Ceiling

When the ball hits the ceiling the point is over. You must hit the ball directly back onto the table otherwise you lose the point. In International tournaments the roof needs to be at least 5 metres above the playing surface but in local competitions you might often encounter much lower ceilings.
