Under Section 40A(3), any expenditure will be disallowed only if both of the two conditions are satisfied: 1) Amount of single expenditure should exceeds Rs. 20000. 2) Single expenditure against which single payment is made, should exceed Rs. 20,000.
E.g. if Travelling expenses is incurred, then the amount of one bill should exceed Rs. 20000 and the corresponding payment should also exceed Rs. 20000.

Take care now from this finance bill, a slight amendment made in section 40A(3) according to which if the payment against one expenditure to a single person in a single day exceeds Rs.20000, it is disallowed.For example, you have one expenditure invoice of Rs.40000, against which you make a payment of Rs.18000/- and 14000/- to a particular person at different times,it is purely disallowed. If you have any doubt,pls feel free to ask again.
