yes.. as per section 40A(3) "any expenditure incurred as a payment in sum of exceeding Rs.20000/- otherwise of paying with payee account cheque, demand draft or any transaction made by banks like RTGS, shall not be allowed as a deduction. However if payment is being made for hiring or leasing, the limit is 35000."

 

its clear that any expense would be disallowed if paid in cash over 20000

Ya you may pay in cash in case of employee is out of town and there is no facility of banking in such town...

If such cash payment above Rs. 20000/-  satisfies any of the conditions of Rule 6DD of the Income Tax Rules, 1962, then the salsry expense shall be allowed.
