Input tax credit could not be denied to a bona fide purchasing dealer who bought from a registered supplier and complied with statutory requirements merely because the supplier failed to deposit the collected tax. The Department's remedy lies against the defaulting supplier, not against the purchaser, unless there is material showing that the transactions were not bona fide or were entered into in collusion.
