Search in SharePoint2013 is not working for users

Issue : Search in SharePoint2013 is not working for users but is working for administrators.

After Search is configured , I started a full Crawl.
After the crawl when I search for documents or anything in search it gives me search results.
However,when I login with a user account having contribute permissions on the site Search does not show any results.

Fix :

I have added the user to "Windows Authorization  user group" in Active Directory.
Reset IIS from command prompt using the command "IISRESET" as administrator.
Start a full crawl.

Now I am able search normally unless specific permissions have been set to any documents.
