I exploded the object and then exported the individual surfaces. One didn’t export, so that is the culprit. Went looking for the usual suspects - micro surfaces with no area or tiny edge length and I found one…

Remove that edge, join all back up, run _RemoveAllNakedMicroEdges to eliminate the micro edges left by the sliver surface when it joined to the others, then it will be a good, closed polysurface that exports fine.

Hello @omkar
I haven’t checked your specific file but I often get this error and it normally means that there is an object flagged as bad in Rhino. This could be a Poly, Surface or curve etc.
I always run the SelBadObjects command before exporting to DWG or DXF.
Bad objects will be highlighted.
FIX: The fix is normally just to Explode and immediately Join the poly.
If this still creates a bad object it can be down to seperating out the offending sub-surface and duplicating the border, untrimming and re-trimming a surface using the extracted border or remaking the sub-surface from the border curves.
I have also had instances of objects being flagged as BadObjects because of incorrect tolerances for the size of the surface or sub-surface.
