Krupananda Reddy, unfortunately, you can't get a backup of your org's metadata without using and configuring some sort of tool. The only user interface that Salesforce provides for downloading your org's metadata is an HTTP "SOAP"-based programming API that is a real pain to make HTTP requests against by hand. The tools people are mentioning take care of a lot of the annoying work involved in fetching information over that API.Typically, if people just want to manually download their information once, they use a graphical user interface with this functionality built in, such as Eclipse + the Force.com API.Typically, if people want to write scripts to download their information on a scheduled basis, they use a command line interface with this functionality built in, such as Ant + the Force.com Migration Tool (sometimes combined with scripts they write in another command-line interface-based programming language that communicate with the data in their organization over Salesforce's ordinary HTTP "REST"-based programming API). Here's one such example: https://developer.salesforce.com/page/Syncing_Salesforce_Org_Metadata_to_Github
