25 May 2012 No, payment can not be made in excess on Rs. 20000 per day. If it is made then disallowance will be made in the year in which expense is claimed.

25 May 2012 If per day amount less than rs. 20,000/- is paid would no disallowance would be called for but should be avoided as the same is very difficult to prove before the Income tax audthorities.
