Burden of proof rested on the Revenue to prove imported items were Open Cells rather than LED/LCD panels; the Revenue failed to discharge this burden given conflicting expert opinions and lack of adversarial testing of experts, so the tribunal held the imports qualified as LED/LCD panels and were eligible for exemption under Notification No. 12/2012-Cus (S.No. 432).
