Disallowance of Dep. by virtue of Sec. 40A(3)

Others 529 views 3 replies

If fixed asset is purchased in cash above Rs. 20000/-, whether dep. on that asset will be disallowed by virtue of Sec. 40A(3) or not.

I have read in Ready Reckoner of Taxmann that the above shall be disallowed but the act is silent about this.

If it is disaalowed please give the circular/ notifacation number regarding its clarification at gauravbansal00776 @ gmail.com
