Hi Puneet,

 I recommend you try Tenergy 05 on your forehand and Tenergy 05 FX on your backhand. If you find that Tenergy 05 is too hard then you can try Tenergy 05 FX on your forehand as well. 
 
I currently use the same combination and also recommend it for my students. I think this is the best choice.
 
Sincerely,
 
Coach Yu
