Dear Ravita,
It depends on the context of the sentence. We do not know that. However, following are the options:
a) Get me/him dussehra mailer made by the agency (sentence implies that the mailer is already made and now you are asking someone to get it)
b) Get the dussehra mailer that is made by the agency (sentence implies that the you have more than one mailers and you are asking that agency has made. However, we need to add subjunctive "that" here)
c) Get the dussehra mailer that is to be made from the agency (sentence implies that the mailer is under preparation. However, in this sentence also we have to add "that", which was missing in your sentence)
d) Get the dussehra mailer that agency has made OR Get the dussehra mailer that agency will make OR Get the dussehra mailer that agency is making (In this sentence active voice is used to avoid confusion. This is irrespective of tense of the sentence. You got confused because of the passive voice. Use active voice as far as possible).
In your both the sentences, you mad missed emphatic article "the" also.
Other senior members also can given their views.
