A company makes payment in cash to employees as following: 75 employee *1500 each=112500/- on the occasion of DIWALI. Now co. makes payment by a single voucher and a list of employee is there with voucher. Please tell me whether sec. 40A(3) is applicable since payment is more than 20000/-.

dear vipin first go through the plain text of section 4oA(3) which is as follows:
Where the assessee incurs "any expenditure" in respect of which a payment or aggregate of payments made to "a person" in a day, otherwise than by an account payee cheque drawn on a bank or account payee bank draft, exceeds twenty thousand rupees, no deduction shall be allowed in respect of such expenditure.
look here two important conditions are: 1. one expediture 2. a person
in your case payment is being made to various persons and individual payment is less than 20000/- hence section 40A(3) is not applicable in this case.
