GST Act and Income Tax Act are two seperate acts with there respective provisions.
As per Income Tax Act any expense for which payment is made in cash exceeding 10,000 is not eligible for deduction while calculating Income from Business. Here expense includes Purchases also.
As per CGST Act, there is no resctriction on mode of payment for making Business Purchases.However if you are making purchases exceeding 5000 in a day from an unregistered dealer, you need to pay GST on reverse charge basis.
