IT is normal contentionof the Department that the manufacturer cannot claim rebate as well as duty drawback simultaneously.
But in my view there is no restriction on claiming drawback and rebate simultaneously because both are different things, Drawback pertains to refund of excise/customs duty paid on raw material used in manufacture of exported goods.
Whereas Rebate of excise duty is in respect of excise duty paid on finished goods exported. There are some case laws supporting the issue. You can contest the same and you will going to have a strong case in your favour at Commissioner/Tribunal Level
