Comodo blocks port forwarding from router, programs can't receive
incoming connections.
Can someone suggest a way to allow port forwarding?

Thanks from

Yes. Drop Comodo.

The file name of an indirect node file is the string "iNode" immediately
followed by the link reference converted to decimal text, with no leading
zeroes. For example, an indirect node file with link reference 123 would
have the name "iNode123". - HFS Plus Volume Format, MacOS X

You go to the personal packet filter/personal firewall and you open the same
ports on it as you did on the router.

I have no problems with forwarded ports with Comodo.

Especially at firewalls, all FW is as good as its configuration.
Well, it can be worse, but never better.

check proper forwarding at router, and incoming connections
in comodo in both Application and Network monitor.

Remember if there is not allowed incoming traffic in network layer,
it does not matter what is allowed at application layer.

First step in blaming is always my own hands,
blaming product is next step.

And Comodo is worse, since it doesn't even allow proper configuration even
in the most simple scenarios.

There is no matter to the latter anyway.

Unless you know what you're doing.
