If the respondent is not filing his evidence then the court will decide the case on the basis of the complaint, evidence given by the complaint and the counter filed, if any by the respondent and the arguments made by both the sides.
The absence of evidence by respondent may cause a great injury to the respondent.

Although burden to prove allegations made in complaint always lies on complainant and If complainant fails to prove the allegations made in complaint then definitely he will loose the case but respondent should not take any risk and should rebut the allegations made against him by adducing cogent evidence.
