Normally it may not be acceptable unless the specific law prescribes speed post as a mode of service.
It is true that there is a delivery tracking system for both speed post and registered post.
But both are conceptually different in terms of delivery. Speed post articles can be delivered to anyone in the address point but a registered post can be issued to the specific addressee alone.

Obtain tracking report qua delivery of the speed post and file the same with a certificate u/s 65B Cr PC, it is admissible and acceptable in Court .
It is advisable to engage and consult a local prudent lawyer for proper appreciation of facts/ documents, guidance and proceeding.
