If A sells goods worth Rs. 1,00,000 to B and B sells the same to C at Rs. 1,30,000, In the books of B, if it passes the ajdustment entry of,
C a/c Dr. 1,30,000 To A A/c 1,00,000 To Cash 30,000
My query: 1. will this adjustment entry be covered by S/40A(3). Does this mean deemed cash payment of more then Rs. 20,000.
Whether passing of such contra entry attracts provisions of section 40A(3) if not please if possible provide some case laws

no. it can not be deemed unless u actaully pay more then 20K. Even u can pay 100000 by a/c payee cheque and balance by cash and make a single entry for the same.

it is contra entry and you will jv in your book u/s 40a(3) i payments are in excessof rs 20000/-at one time is diallowed in your case cotra entry should be made and you are not pay in cash to A so sec 40A(3) is not applicable

The following sub-section (3) shall be substituted for the existing sub-section (3) of section 40A by the Finance Act, 2007, w.e.f. 1-4-2008 :
(3)(a) Where the assessee incurs any expenditure in respect of which payment is made in a sum exceeding twenty thousand rupees otherwise than by an account payee cheque drawn on a bank or account payee bank draft, no deduction shall be allowed in respect of such expenditure
NOTE THAT THE WORDS USED ARE OTHERWISE THAN ACCOUNT PAYEE CHEQUE AND NOT THE WORDS CASH PAID...........ANY PAYMENT MADE BY CONTRA ENTRY IS PAYMENT OTHERWISE THAN ACCOUNT PAYEE CHEQUE

Dear Mr. Jain, Read the above once more and be clear abt that. First of all: EXPENDITURE INCURRED then: PAYMENT is made then: ABOVE 20000 then: not an a/c payee CHEQUE
here main thing is payment made for an expenditure by a mode of payment which is not by a a/c payee cheque mode.

As per Section 40A(3) expenditure incurred in excess of Rs. 20,000/-, payment for which is made otherwise than by an account payeee cheque are disallowed.
Rule 6DD of the Income Tax Rules provides circumstances in which payments exceeding Rs. 20,000/- are NOT disallowed.
Sub-ruled (d) provides that where the payment is made by way of adjustment, the amount will not be disallowed.
So, in the above case, the amount of Rs. 1 lakh shall NOT be disallowed.
However, you have made a cash payment of Rs. 30,000/-. This amount shall be disallowed.
