Non-service of demand orders and prolonged departmental inaction can negate a valid assumption that an assessee was duly served and in default under section 220(1). The Court found the Department's claim of service by e-mail unpersuasive because the record did not satisfactorily establish service, and the long lapse of time was inconsistent with the demands having remained uncontested if they had truly been received.
