Yes , he can pay cash to a job worker provided the cash paid doesn't exceed 20000 in one day.

Dear Friend,

For Filing ITR  u/s 44AD, Assessee is required to maintain sales ledger, sundry debtors and sundry creditors ledger. depending upon the nature of business, simplify computation to arrive net profit.

Assessee can make transactions of receipts and payment in cash provided, payment to single person does not exceed 20000  a day.

To pay in cash he should comply the provisions of Section 40A(3) & Rule 6DD, else payment made will be disallowed, subject to certain exceptions.

As per the provisions of Section 40A(3) : Payment in cash is allowed upto Rs.20000 to a person in day. It means One Day - One Person - Max. Rs.20000 - in Cash.

Rule 6DD provides exceptions of it.

Since the assessee is paying tax u/s 44AD hence there is no question of disallowance u/s 40A(3).

He may pay the entire amount in cash in one day or in any way convenient to him. Because he is not asking for allowance of this amount hence there is no question of disallowance.. 

 

There is not problem in paying the entire amount in cash as long as he paying the tax u/s 44AD

Thanks, Mr. Prateek

I am sorry for my Previous Reply.

As, Section 44AD begins with the wordings “Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in sections 28 to 43C”.

This means that if there is anything which is contradicting the provisions of Section 44AD, then the provisions mentioned in the section 44AD will override those provisions and such provisions will not be applicable.

In short, provisions of section 44AD have overriding effect over sections 28 to 43C unless and until mentioned otherwise.

& also No need to Pay Advance Tax.

Thus, 40A(3) – Cash payment above Rs. 20,000/- will not be applicable in case of eligible assessee carrying on eligible business.

Sorry, Once again.

No problem sir...  we all are learning... never mind
