As we learnt that

Diamagnetism -

When substance unaffected by a magnetic field or the central metal atom doesn't have unpaired e- called Diamagnetic substance or character.

- wherein

eg\ \;Sc^{+++}\Rightarrow 3d^{\circ }9s^{2}

No unpaired e-

 

 

Paramagnetism -

When a substance is attracted by a magnetic field or have unpaired  e-  called paramagnetic substance.

- wherein

eg\Rightarrow \:\:Cr^{+}-3d^{5}

5 unpaired e- 

 

 MnO_{4}^{2-} has one unpaired electron so it can show d-d transition andd it is paramagnetic.
