Is Purchase Account is a Real Account Or Nominal Account ? I think it's nominal account but the problem I had faced is that When I was Searching this in ICAI Website it was Mentioned that it is a Real Account. So, please Clarify My Question

yes, if you see an entry

inventory purchases, in our books we show as purchases, as it is inventory purchases in full he is treating as real account, if it is stationary purchase then as stationary is not a real account it will be nominal

inventory is real account but on the basis of the attachment purchases has it changes, if inventory purchase it is real, it is just purchase ledger it is nominal, and if stationary purchase it is nominal, if asset purchase it is real
