My ISP supports port forwarding and the router as well but still  i am not able to reach my pc over the internet.

       I don't know what that means.  What, exactly, are you trying to do?

       You first?  What, exactly, are you trying to do?

       "reach" _how_?

     

       "not able" is not a useful problem description.  It does not say
    what you did.  It does not say what happened when you did it.  As usual,
    showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
    messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
    descriptions or interpretations.

       Unrelated to "reach my pc".

       Are you running a web server (on your "my pc")?  There's no reason to
    hide that IP address.  (What about port 443?)
