YES

There will be no tax liability on receipt of cash exceding rs.20000/-in  a same day.

There is a section in income tax act which deals with this case. U/s 269SS & u/s 269T receipt in excess of Rs. 20,000/- not allowed in cash otherwise than an account payee cheque or account payee bank draft.

Dear All

Sec 269SS & T is only for loan or advance taken or payment(Balance Sheet item). So if the assessee has taken or has given any loan then he is not allowed to pay Rs20000/- in cash or receive the same.

for P/L items, In no way Rs. 20000/- can be paid in cash in one day to one party but there is no limit for any receipts, as the problem then lies with the giver and not taker.So still if the assessee wants to deal then he can simply break the amounts in Rs.20000/- or less in one voucher in one date.

in case of cash sale more than 20000. there is any requirement of any identity  proof of buyer ?

You doesnot have any problem in accepting cash in excess of Rs.20000/- per day from your customers.

However, your customer may have issues in such transactions for paying cash in excess of Rs.20,000/- per day.

In case of some articles such as gold, income tax department specifies to obtain there PAN if there transaction exceeds a specified limit. It is applicable even if the sales was on credit card or cheque sales.
