Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that when a notice is sent and returned with an endorsement indicating avoidance of service, it shall be deemed to have been served. The Court referenced its earlier decision in Karnataka Public Service Commission & Ors. vs. B.M. Vijaya Shanker & Ors. [(1992) 2 SCC 206] to resolve the controversy, allowing the appeal and setting aside the Tribunal's order without costs.
