[RishabSaha]

run("cmd.exe /c sc start ccmexec", "", @SW_HIDE)

i am using the above command to start the service, but is there a way I can restart it , like in PowerShell we have "restart-service "

There are several ways, but I prefer psservice from Sysinternals. A restart option is available there, which e.g. also takes dependencies into account.

Here you find UDFs that allow to start/sop services.

I use the sc command built into windows

According to the MS Docs, "The Restart-Service cmdlet sends a stop message and then a start message to the Windows Service Controller for a specified service. If a service was already stopped, it is started without notifying you of an error., so it seems perfectly reasonable to me to use an SC STOP, followed by an SC START to accomplish the same thing.
