This discussion addresses how to handle outstanding salary payments from the previous financial year. Key questions revolve around obtaining signed vouchers for online transfers and the validity of cash payments for employees without bank accounts. Advice suggests that cash payments are limited to £10,000 per voucher, and employees should ideally have bank accounts. If cash is necessary, employees can collect their balance salary in person, signing a voucher with a revenue stamp, with a daily limit of £10,000 per person.

i have salaries payables for last financial year. i want to pay those now to all those employees for whom i have liabilities. now i have funds so i can pay them but 2 questions.
1. to some employees i will transfer online in their accounts, can i get voucher signed? in that i will mention that i have paid last financial year balance.
2. then there are small amount salaries under 2.5-3 lacs pending per employee, can i pay them in cash as they don't have accounts? for this i will have to withdraw cash from bank and then in this also in voucher i will mention that i have paid last financial year balance salary.
for all employees i have pan card details. tds is not there for them because less than 5 lacs salary. please suggest

1. Ask employee to send you receipt online. 2. No. Need to pay by cheque or by digital mode. No question of not having bank account now-a- day.

1. The females also have jandhan accounts or joint accounts with their spouse or father based on Aadhar. Without that you cannot pay cash. If you do not pay cash they will open bank account, if any of them really do not have bank account. 2. For all of them you can give cheques, if no email receipts available.
