Kumarjit, this really depends on the OS and way the remote directory is accessed.
For instance if you mount a remote windows box, I strongly recommend using gvfs to mount the remote local directory and file roller to decompress.
If it is a unix box, there are a few options. One would be to simply mount the remote file system.
In my example I create a directory underneath my operational directory, the directory is called "remote".

If the objective is to now deflate into remote...
If it is not locally mounted you can use still other approaches.
