The maximum cash expense limit for 1 single transaction for is Rs. 20000/-. Has there been any revision? Can you also tell me whether it is possible to give an advance of Rs. 50000/- to a staff in cash vide a single transaction?

in my opinion u can give staff advance of Rs.50,000.
But make sure he will not give it to single party or for single exp in a single day.

Dear Ms. Saha,
As far as my knowledge is concerned there is no revision in the limit being set for the cash transaction.
Further, payment to the employees generally made through the bank account including salary, bonus, advances etc. You can make payment through that medium as well.
Furthermore, you can make payment to the concerned employee as advance of Rs. 50,000/-.

It depends nature of payment made to employee. If it's capital payment, like loan then No disallowance and if it's not capital payment then it is considered as expense and same will be disallowed 40A(3).

Acc to rule 6DD, terminal payments (gratuity, VRS, etc.) paid to employee upto Rs. 50,000 can be paid other than by way of a/c payee cheque, and still be allowed...

Hi
Advance being not an expense will have no treatment on payment as P&L is not affected, therefore no question of allowance or disallowance.
But subsequently wen expenses are booked against such advance, u hav to see allowance in accordance with Sec 40A(3) and accordingly expenses in cash of more than Rs.20K / Rs.35K (in case of transporter) will be subjected to provisions of the said section.
Regards.

First of all I will ask that there is no system in the Company for giving out cash within certain fixed limit?
If it is Company or tax audit is applicable then my advise will be restrict it to less than 20K or pay it only by account payee cheque or net transfer.
It is better governance to follow the rules...
any doubt please let me know..

It is not problem if employee salary is 10,000/-p.m. you can adjust that amount by deducting salary (not whole amount , some amount like i.e. 3000 per month)
