yes when composition dealer purchased goods from registered dealers he is liable to pay GST to seller as per invoice...

but he is NOT eligible to take credit of that tax..this tax exp becomes part of cost of stock

Firsty understand it is an alternative method Provide by Government to discharge your GST liability..you need to pay simply respective % of sale value. For this you don't need to issue GST invoice you simply issued "Bill of supply." It is majorly applicable on goods ..and only on one service of supply of goods being food or any article for human consumption or any drink(Restaurant).
The objective of this scheme is to bring simplicity and reduce the compliance cost for the Small Taxpayers.
It is basically for Small Taxpayers with an aggregrate turnover in a preceding financial year toRs 1 crore shall be eligible for composition levy

in other case ..tax burden directly paid by..consumer...but in this case he is not collect tax from the consumer..he wil pay fixed percentage tax to the govt...and also he not take input credit
my doubt how this scheme is beneficial to small taxpayer..he doesn't collect tax from customer...he will pay his own money

Firstly I want to add this GST Council in its 23rd meeting decided to revise the said limit to 1.5 crores for states other than those listed in 'special category'.
Now For your Question - To avoid compliance cost as in this case no need to file monthly return quarterly return need to file and For simplicity purpose supplier used this method
For Example - Xerox centre their major activities is Xerox apart from these they also sale stationery items and also many items of food , Now if they segregrate all items with different rates it will cumbursome for him. so they simply follows composition scheme. as major goods they sale on MRP basis.
Aslo take a example of restaurants who have variety of food/ snacks with various GST rates
