20 November 2012 The disallowance u/s 40A(3) is attracted only when payment is made for an expenditure which is otherwise allowed as deduction in computing the profits from business.

Purchase of fixed asset is a capital expenditure and is not allowed as deduction. Accordingly, the payment made for the same will NOT attract disallowance u/s 40A(3).

Further depreciation on such asset shall also NOT be disallowed.
