❓ Frequently asked questions

What is the MSMED Act and how does it affect Vendor Agreements?

The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 mandates payment to MSME vendors within 45 days (or as agreed, whichever is earlier). Section 15 imposes compound interest at 3× the RBI bank rate on delayed payments. Buyers must disclose unpaid MSME dues in their annual accounts.

Does a Vendor Agreement attract stamp duty?

Yes — nominal stamp duty (₹100–₹500) on non-judicial stamp paper. For agreements transferring movable goods, the Sale of Goods Act, 1930 applies and stamp duty depends on the consideration.

Who bears the risk during delivery — buyer or vendor?

Default rule under Section 26 of the Sale of Goods Act, 1930: risk follows property. The agreement should expressly state Incoterms (FOB, CIF, Ex-Works) and the point at which title and risk pass to the buyer.

Is GST e-invoicing applicable to Vendor Agreements?

For B2B supplies, e-invoicing is mandatory if the vendor’s aggregate turnover exceeds ₹5 crore (as of 2023). The Vendor Agreement should require the vendor to issue compliant tax invoices and provide IRN within the prescribed time.

Can the buyer reject defective goods under a Vendor Agreement?

Yes — Section 41 of the Sale of Goods Act, 1930 gives the buyer the right to examine goods on delivery. If they do not conform to the contract, the buyer can reject within a reasonable time and is entitled to refund or replacement.
