I have installed postfix and dovecot on my server example.in

I am able to telnet on both port 25 & 110 from outside and send email & login successfully.

The only problem is that the sever is not fetching emails from the internet.

What could possibly be wrong?

Thanks in anticipation

As far as I know, postfix is MTA (Mail Transport Agent) only, ie. postfix itself do not fetch mails from internet. To fetch mails you would need fetchmail or getmail.
