11 June 2025 Dear Experts,

A company is following the section 115BAA of the Income Tax Act.

Unfortunately, the company has remitted the amount Rs 70,000.00 in cash to the transporters.

Whether will it be accepted one? Or not

Is there any overriding concept between two sections 115BAA and 40A(3)

12 June 2025 Companies opting for Section 115BAA must comply with all other provisions of the Act unless specifically exempted. There is no exemption under 115BAA from the restrictions of Section 40A(3).

A company following Section 115BAA that makes a cash payment over the limit set by Section 40A(3) will still have that expense disallowed, just like any other company.

There is no statutory provision or judicial precedent that allows Section 115BAA to override the requirements or disallowances under Section 40A(3).
