Dear Sir,

 It differs from State to state.

Incase of Karnataka, when u purchase goods from an Unregistered dealer, you have to pay purchase tax on transaction amount and to the extent of goods sold during the return period you can claim itc on such purchases.

Also unregistered dealer purchases will become part of Sales turnover.
