- Convictions under Sec. 45 require the prosecution to establish the offence beyond reasonable doubt, often emphasizing the importance of independent witnesses and proper appreciation of evidence (Sources: 02200011225, 02200010379, 02200013847).

The section emphasizes that evidence from excise officers, especially expert testimony, must be clear and unequivocal; mere experience or long service does not automatically qualify an officer as an expert (Sources: 02200013847, 02200010553).
