Appellate Tribunal held that service of order to a contract security person cannot be considered valid service u/s 37C(a), as he was not an authorized agent. Appellant traced the order on a later date after receiving recovery notice. Appeal was allowed for remand to Commissioner (Appeals) to decide on merits, as it was earlier rejected on time bar without considering merits.
