No, the payment for purchases cant be made in cash except as referred in rule 6DD. Kindly refer the same.
Amount Rs.1 lacs deposited in cash by purchaser to the bank a/c of supplier would amount to cash payment.It is like the same thing as paying in cash to the supplier and then supplier depositing the same into its bank a/c.This type of payment not as per the payment through the banking system as mentioned in Rule 6DD hence would tantamount to cash payment
