Regarding Section 40A

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the application of Section 40A(3) of the Income Tax Act regarding cash payments. If a single bill exceeds the Rs 10,000 (or Rs 35,000) limit, but the payments are made on different dates and no single payment surpasses the threshold, Section 40A(3) is generally not attracted. This means such expenses may still be allowed for tax purposes.

27 April 2025 If an assessee makes payment of a single bill (exceeding Rs. 10,000 / Rs. 35,000) on different days to the same person in cash, provision of sec. 40A(3) is not attracted, provided any of the payment does not exceed Rs. 10,000 / Rs. 35,000.
