07 October 2013 No if the payment is made to different parties,
Then there would be no dis-allowances in respect of Section 40{a}3...

Under section 40 A 3 limit is only 20000/- per day per person ...

07 October 2013 Agree with other expert.Disallowance will be made only if payment to one single party in one day exceeds 20000. If you pay less than 20000 to even 10 parties in a day ,there is no disallowance
