05 December 2012 Sir
One of my clients purchased Machinery for Rs 10 lakhs for which they have paid an amount Rs 52000 to the Transporter by cash. In this connection kindly advice whether it is disallowable as per IT Rules.Assesee is liable for tax audit .Please give the position as per Income tax Rules. In this respect please note that since it is not the expense of the assessee as it is a Capital asset and is capitalised, whether disallowance of cash payment in excess of Rs 20000/- is applicable.
Thanks & Rgds

05 December 2012 Hi...Govt has raised threshold limit in regarding transportation charges to Rs 35000 which has taken effect form 01.10.2009.

So in your case payment would be disallowed under IT Rules. And yes this will assume as capital expenditure.
