10000/ per day and 2 lacs/annum

is it under same section 269ST?

No, under section 40(3) , the cash limit of 10000/ day came in to existence.

thanks for the information.this means we have to take care that yealy limit of 2lac should not be crossed as well 10000/-per day should not exceed. But what is we have given cash for petty cash use which exceeds Rs.10,000/-?

Limit of 10000 is mentioned under 40a(3)

yes that's it. In the case of petty cash , you can transfer the amount but make sure that it doesn't crossing the limit. Means, for a single transaction done with petty cash shuldn't cross 10000/ day. And there is an exception in this section... That is the  payment to transport operator is allowed up to Rs. 35,000.

Don't book expenses which is crossing the limit. if you give that amount to petty cash , it is ok. If you utilise that petty cash amount in a single transaction for booking some expenses, you would attract the penalty or disallowance...
