27 July 2016 We are tour operator and we have made booking of Railway train tickets for our client for one tour. Tickets are purchased in cash and amount spend is more than Rs. 20000.(Approx Rs. 1L). Now my query is here railway will be qualified as payment made to government or not?? whether sec 40A(3) will be applicable in this situation. Need your suggestion for future to avoid such this situation.

27 July 2016 Yes as per my view the Indian Railway is central government organization hence it is covered under the payments to the government) and you can pay the ticket amount by cash to railway authority, there is no such disallowance under section 40A(3).
