Just a heads up, I applied for my mom's supervisa (paper application, dropped at VFS Mumbai and being processed in Bangalore VO)
With upfront medicals and passport sent along with application.
Timeline:
21/03/2017 - Dropped Application at the VFS.
22/03/2017 - Received a mail from VFS saying it's been forwarded to Bangalore or Delhi
23/03/2017 - Tracked the application ID using VFS tracking - Which mentioned the application is being processed in Bangalore VO
23/03/2017 - Successfully linked the application on cic's site
No AOR as of yet, Not sure if Bangalore VO would send one or if there would be any other updates.
The status on the CIC site is:
Where is this application? Details

Sorry about the long message with detailed statuses, just thought it would help some one.
Shall keep the forum updated as info on paper based applications is scarce. This might help someone.
Cheers!
