Can any body tell me whether the payment of staff advance in cash amounting to Rs. 50000 (which will be adjusted from his/her salary over the period of 50 months) is disallowed or not under Income Tax Act.

Disallowance u/s 40A(3)is applicable only in case of payments for expenditure and the act is clear. The staff advance in cash is not an expenditure. Hence it will have to be allowed. Disallowance is not attracted in this case.
