I think I have figured it out. Problem was not with Registry or Service
Install tags but with a feature condition. If you look at 
http://www.nabble.com/file/p15825405/TestServer.wxs TestServer.wxs  at line
no 163 we had added the condition of UILevel to be equal or greater than 5. 

Now according to Microsoft:

0       Does not change UI level.
1       Uses default UI level.
2       = Silent installation.
3       = Simple progress and error handling.
4       = Authored UI and wizard dialog boxes suppressed.
5       = Authored UI with wizards, progress, and errors.
32      = If combined with the msiUILevelBasic value, the installer shows
progress dialog boxes but does not display a Cancel button on the dialog box
to prevent users from canceling the installation.
64      = If combined with the msiUILevelBasic value, the installer displays
progress dialog boxes but does not display any modal dialog boxes or error
dialog boxes.
128     = If combined with any above value, the installer displays a modal
dialog box at the end of a successful installation or if there has been an
error. No dialog box is displayed if the user cancels.

So on unintalling from Add/Remove Programs UILevel was 3 and our service was
not selected for UnInstallation. Investigating the commit history it turned
out that a developer while implementing automatic silent installation in
clients msi's did also added this line to server for a reason, but the
checking number went wrong.

Well this is what I have figured it out after two days of labor. I am still
not 100% sure(though it is working on my machines now) and I would be happy
if any wix veteran can look into source and logs and advice any other
possibilities.

Thanks you!
