Quick Summary
Under the Indian Income Tax Act 1961, there's a daily limit of Rs. 10,000 for cash payments to any single creditor. Exceeding this limit means the expenditure won't be deductible for tax purposes. Importantly, this limit is per day, not per year, so there's no annual cash payment ceiling.

You can pay daily 10000 to a party in cash
1). CASH PAYMENTS :

As per the Provision of Section 40A(3) of the Income Tax Act 1961, A person can pay a maximum of Rs. 10,000 per day to per person in "CASH". If the Cash payment exceeds Rs. 10,000 in a day, then you will not be allowed to claim deduction of that particular expenditure in your P&L A/c [ PROFITS AND GAINS FROM BUSINESS OR PROFESSION HEAD ]. There is no Year limit. The limit prescribed under the Law is "per day."

2). CASH RECEIPTS :

As per the Provision of Section 269ST of the Income Tax Act 1961, No person shall receive an amount of "Two lakh rupees" or more :

(a). in aggregate from a person in a day; or

(b). in respect of a single transaction; or

(c). in respect of transactions relating to one event or occasion from a person,

otherwise than by an account payee cheque or an account payee bank draft or use of electronic clearing system through a bank account.
