No , VAT is applicable only if you are a trader, if you are a diamond dealer then irrespective of whom u sell it will attaract VAT, As u have mentioned that you are not a diomond trader and this is one off case, VAT does not apply here.

only on the basis of selling a goods once, VAT not effected. for being vat liability imported factor is the person should be a dealer and a business and transaction should be in relation of business wether it is directly or indirectly effected your business. in the light of provisions under DVAT act it seems you would not be covered under VAT regime.
