Yes, as per the direction of the Court you have to take steps for service to opposite party. In case there is caveat of opposite then you'll have to supply the copy of petition to the advocate of that party.

Each and every mode you mentioned is valid but less reliance is put notice through courier service. So far as the format is concerned, it is given in Order 5 of CPC and all courts issue notices accordingly.

All these modes are valid modes of service, but you have to follow the direction given by the Court for service.
