The amount of stamp duty paid of Rs. 210150/- will be disallowed. However as per Rule 6DD, where the payment is made to the Government and, under the rules framed by it, such payment is required to be made in legal tender, then the stamp duty charges paid to Government can be allowed.

The Rs. 35000/- also can be allowed if it is paid to the Government and the Government department wanted the payment to be in legal tender (cash).

The above opinion is based on a very wide interpretation of the exceptions to sec 40A(3). The worst case is that all the expenses paid in cash will be disallowed.
