It's hard to believe that Airtel has blocked these ports. I just tested 32032 on IPv6 and it works just fine.
See the screenshot. I temporarily changed my RDP to listen on 32032 instead of default 3389.
When RDPed thru IPv6 from another PC on mobile internet, (Different ISP) it connects just fine. You may want to describe each and every step that you are doing so that others can provide more help.

i have made changes in my dhcp to give my 2 pc custom ip via dhcp binding
then i have made 2 rules in port forwarding to forward 32032 and 32038 on my router
i am using 2 application on 1 pc usb redirector which works on 32032
and on 2nd pc usb redirector technician edition which works on 32038.
the airtel technician has also confirmed that airtel has blocked port forwarding and they are asking me to buy a static ip which will cost me 220 rs extra every month. It would be great if you can contact me on telegram
 
I would like to reiterate that there's no port forwarding in IPv6. It's only applicable for IPv4.
Have you checked on IPv6 by disabling all firewalls.
 
Port Forwarding is working correctly here on my TP-Link AXE75. I am using TP-Link XZ000-G3 V1 ONU. I also have a static IP.

You can also get port forwarding working if you have a publicly routable static/dynamic IPv4 and use any free DDNS service.

For IPv6, you will have to disable IPv6 firewall in your own router and use IPv6 DDNS client on your PC. This is because, Airtel's IPv6 keeps on changing after every reboot so it would be incredibly dumb to whitelist any IPv6 and port 3389 in router.
