Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
The issue you have with the home title showing the post title is due to Google overriding your meta title with a better title (the one Google thinks will fulfill better the search intent).
Google sometimes change title and description to match better the search intent and since you are ranking the home for that keyword, Google is changing it.
About why your home is ranking instead of your post, it could be solved by reviewing the SEO (on-page and off-page). You might want to build some backlinks pointing to that post and also you would want to make sure you have your post optimized for the keyword, a good interlinking in the site and in the homepage not showing the full post content but maybe just a short excerpt (to avoid ranking that text).
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

Sir, our post already ranked in first page for 20+ days
Hello,
Your page is showing first from my end, check the screenshot I have added in the sensitive section.( i had to add your domain name to bring up results related to your site)
Please note that sometimes the homepage can Rank higher than the post especially on a site where the homepage is set to include the latest posts. The Ranking for the homepage is likely to change when you publish more articles and Google crawls different articles on your homepage.
You can also check this thread: https://support.rankmath.com/ticket/home-page-indexed-not-post-page/?view=all where a user had a similar occurrence on their site.
Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.

Please go through it.
if we talk about content my website contained 40+ posts before delete
Did you delete the content? Not really sure what you mean by that sentence.
Just found that the theme is using h1 tags for all post titles in Homepage. Don’t Know How to Set them to H2 or H3. Is that can lead to problem mentioned above.
Also i Want more Schema Option so can you suggest better plugin for schema (paid) with whom i can add custom schema as well
Hello,
The homepage tags are usually determined from your theme files. You will need to edit your theme for these, usually the index.php file. If you are not sure, please get in touch with your theme provider to assist you with this.
As for the schema plugin, you there are a lot of schema plugins in the market, paid and free. You will need to do some research according to your requirements to find your best fit. Just ensure to disable the schema markup module in Rank math dashboard if you install another plugin for the same to avoid conflicts.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
is the issue happened because of H1 Tags?
My Support Time is over for this theme and developer says as per new guidelines h1 have no seo effect. and Changes to h3 need custom work so need to pay.
Hello,
H1 tags may not appear critical but they are known to have an influence on your page SEO. Many SEO consultants usually have different views on this topic. Here is an article that describes the topic from both ends, ensure to check on under the sub-topic Why you should still use H1s.
That said, page ranking on Google depends on so much more than just your on-page optimization. You could have the perfect article and still struggle to make it rank the top 10 in SERPs. Here are some of the factors Google considers when ranking your page:
1. Your website’s authority
2. Your content’s quality and how better it is than the other article currently ranking.
3. How competitive the keyword is.
4. How many backlinks you have and if they are better than what the other guys ranking for that keyword have.
5. Your website’s crawlability.
6. Frequency of new content and content updates.
7. So much more that there is a dedicated blog post on it by Brian Dean 🙂

I would recommend that you keep at it and work on acquiring more links to break into the top SERPs.
