The tax imposed by this part is payable by any dealer who actually or constructively possesses an unauthorized substance in this state upon which the tax has not been paid as evidenced by a stamp issued by the commissioner. The tax is payable within forty-eight (48) hours after the dealer acquires actual or constructive possession of a non-tax-paid unauthorized substance, exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays of this state, in which case the tax is payable on the next working day. If the tax is not paid within forty-eight (48) hours, the tax will become delinquent and shall accrue penalty and interest pursuant to the provisions of chapter 1, part 8 of this title. Upon payment of the tax, the dealer shall permanently affix the appropriate stamps to the unauthorized substance. Once the tax due on an unauthorized substance has been paid, no additional tax is due under this part even though the unauthorized substance may be handled by other dealers. If a dealer is found in possession of a substance taxable under this part that does not have the appropriate tax stamp affixed, it shall be presumed the dealer has been in possession of such substance for longer than forty-eight (48) hours, exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays of this state.
