02 August 2025 Here’s the answer to your query about **URD purchases of bamboo** and VAT liability:

---

### 1. Is the purchaser liable to pay VAT on purchase from unregistered dealer (URD)?

**Yes.**
If the supplier (unregistered dealer) does not charge VAT on the sale (because they are unregistered), then under most VAT laws, **the purchaser is liable to pay VAT on such purchases** under the **reverse charge mechanism** or **URD purchase rules**.

---

### 2. At what rate should VAT be paid?

* The purchaser should pay VAT at the **rate applicable to bamboo** in the respective state.
* For example, if VAT on bamboo is 5%, then VAT on the purchase value from the URD will be calculated at 5%.

---

### 3. Can purchaser claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on VAT paid on URD purchase?

* **Yes, usually the purchaser can claim input tax credit** on the VAT paid under URD purchase.
* This input credit can be adjusted against VAT liability on sales.
* However, the rules on ITC on URD purchases may vary slightly between states, so it’s good to check the exact provisions under the local VAT act.

### Summary:

| Question | Answer |

| Is purchaser liable to pay VAT? | Yes, under URD/reverse charge mechanism |
