        Honestly, I would avoid using the same titles as a competitor. You want to stand out in the SERPs, not look like everyone else. It is possible to optimize your titles and still make them different enough to catch a searcher's eye.

            Hi Abdul,

            Page titles are only one in the whole ranking factors. If you have optimized your pages for those keywords, it would be advisable to optimize and work on the other ranking factors.

            Some further read is here:

            Search Engine Ranking Factors 2015 - Moz.com
            On-Page  Ranking Factors - Best SEO Practices - Moz.com

            Also, have you tried the Moz's on-Page grader? Check your pages and your competitors pages for those keywords, pretty valuable information will come out.

            Hope it helps.
            GR.
