Advance to commission agent in cash above limit

Yes if the amount paid in advance exceeds the limit of Rs. 35,000 then the whole of such expenditure can be disallowed. 

Since there is an agent appointed for the purpose of watching the logistics and transportation it is better always to pay him by cheque. He can inturn draw cash from the bank and use it for payment to transporters which may be lesser than the limit.
