Drawback
Drawback, 'drawback' means the repayment of duties or taxes previously charged on commodities, from which they are relived on exportation, State of Uttar Pradesh v. Delhi Cloth Mills, (1991) 1 SCC 454 (468).The term used in commerce to signify the remitting or paying back upon the exportation of a commodity of the duties previously paid on it.A drawback is a device resorted to for enabling a commodity affected by taxes to be exported and sold in the foreign market on the same terms as if it had not been taxed at all.

Burden of proof [onus probandi, Lat.]. the most prominent canon of evidence is, that the point in issue is to be proved by the party who asserts the affirmative, according to the civil law maxims, Ei incumbit probatio qui dicit, nonqui negat; Actori incumbit onus probandi; and Affirmanti non neganti incumbit probatio. The burden of proof lies on the person who has to support his case by proof of a fact which is peculiarly within his own knowledge, or of which he is supposed to be cognizant. See Best on Evidence, Bk. III., Pt. 1, ch. 2.The expression 'burden of proof' really means two different things. It means sometimes that a party is required to prove an allegation before judgment can be given in its favour; it also means that on a contested issue one of the two contending parties has to introduce evidence, Narayan Bhagwantrao Gosavi v. Gopal Vinayak Gosavi, AIR 1960 SC 100: (1960) 1 SCR 773: (1960) SCJ 263.The phrase 'burden of proof' has not been defined in the Indian Evidence Act....
