because you pass a string, not an array :) try it:

$.ajax({
        url: "<?= base_url(); ?>edit/save_purchase",
        type: "POST"
        data: {id : id, supplier_id : supplier_id, description : description, product_id : product_id, payment_mode : payment_mode},
        dataType: "json",
        beforeSend:function(){
           //alert("asds");
        },
        success: function(data) {
        //alert("Edited");
            alert(data);
         }
        });

in you php use :

$arr = json_decode($_POST);
//some php code
//some $result;
// if $result arr then
echo json_encode($result);
// else 
echo json_encode(array('data' => $result))

hope this helps...
