Construction Company accounting

I am an accountant in a construction company, using Tally Prime for accounts management. As a part of our business. We use natural soil for ground leveling in our construction projects. We are purchasing soil from some suppliers. But we are not treating it as a purchase. We used to treat this as an expense that occurred for that particular project. This expense is unclear to me whether it is a direct or indirect expense. It is actually occurring while manufacturing a Building and it is necessary. 

 

It would be helpful if someone can help me to clear this doubt.

Quick Summary
An accountant using Tally Prime for a construction company is seeking clarification on how to account for natural soil used in ground levelling. The soil is purchased from suppliers but currently treated as a project expense rather than a purchase. The accountant is unsure if this should be classified as a direct or indirect expense, considering its necessity in building construction.

I think it shud be treated as purchase as it's directly related to formation of building.
What about mining government companies
