26 June 2012 Amounts not deductible in respect of expenditure exceeding Rs. 20,000† [Sec. 40A(3)] * - If an assessee incurs any expenditure in respect of which payment in excess of Rs. 20,000 is made otherwise than by a crossed cheque or crossed bank draft, 20 per cent of such expenditure will be disallowed as expenditure. Rule 6DD, however, prescribes the cases and circumstances in which payment in excess of Rs. 20,000 may be made otherwise than by a crossed cheque or crossed bank draft without attracting the disallowance. Even payment made for purchase of goods falls within the expression “expenditure” occurring in this section.
