Service of the Order-in-Original was proved by clear acknowledgement dated 07.02.2023, and the appellant's production of the signed order itself undermined the claim of late receipt. On that factual basis, the appeal filed before the Commissioner (Appeals) on 30.01.2025 was held to be far beyond the normal and statutorily condonable period.
