14 January 2016 Usually in assessment proceedings the AO does not accept self made vouchers for deduction of expenses. It would be better to ask the employee to provide petrol slip to you because the AO can also justify the disallowance by saying that at petrol pump the vendor does not refuse to provide petrol bills. For expenditure already incurred for which you does not have petrol slip you can prepare vouchers signed by employee and than if addition is made you can challenge it in appeal.
