Hi, If i purchase any asset and make payment exceeding Rs. 20000 in cash then will it be allowed as deduction u/s. 40A(3). For instance, if i purchase computer for Rs. 30000 and paid full amount in cash, then will it be allowed. If possible also give reference of any circular or judgement.

Section 40 A(3) does not apply in respect of an expenditure not claimed as deduction u/s 30 to 37. Like wise if the purchase of capital asset is not meant for sale the said section is not applicable.

I agree with Warrier Sir. Although one writer has mentioned in his book that in such case, the depreciation part is disallowed on such asset, but no other member or author is found consented with him till today to me.

Thank you all for your valuable input.
But as Rule 6DD is not applicable to capital expenditure. So can i purchase an asset of say Rs. 4 lacs by cash payment and also can i claim depreciation for the same.
