If one deposits cash in bank account of his supplier (remote place) directly in his city, more than Rs.20,000/-, on a single day is it covered by section 40 A (3). Secondly, what is Electronic clearing system (ECS) ?

Dear,
U need to check this one out in the Rule 6DD ( this will answer your first Question)
Second one is about ECS - Dear this is used by many people now a days
e.g. u can made ECS for the Purpose of Your Monthly bills of Electricity, Gas, Telephone Etc. - just u need to fill a ECS ka Form for the same - these bills will then be paid automatically from your bank Account.
U can create SIP in mutual Funds - fill the SIP ka Form & the same will be paid Automatically from your bank account.

It is not covered by 40A(3).
ECS is a system whereby you can transfer amount from your account to other parties account without writing cheque. You have just to inform Bank about amount and details of transferee.

dear friend
if the remote place is a kind of place where banking facility are not easilly available. then it should not attract sec.40A(3). otherwise it will be disallowed under the aforesaid saction.( in this case i think it will be allowed)
as far as ECS is concerned i agree with above friends.

IT WILL ATTRACT DISALLOWANCE UNDER SEC.40 A(3). THE REASON WHY CASH DEPOSIT IN THE SUPPLIER A/C IS DISALLOWED IS THE REVENUE (IT DEPT) HAS TO MONITOR THE FUND MOVEMENTS FROM ONE PERSON TO ANOTHER PERSON TO CHECK TAX EVASION.
IN U R CASE, THE REVENUE CANNOT ASCERTAIN AS TO WHO HAS DEPOSITED THE MONEY. HE HIMSELF CAN DEPOSIT.....EVEN I TOO CAN DEPOSIT IN HIS NAME.... SINCE THERE IS NO PROOF FOR THE DEPT. AS WHO HAS DEPOSITED / PAID THE MONEY....THE DEPT WANTS EVERYONE TO USE THE BANKING SYSTEM TO TRACE THE PAYER / BUYER AND RECEIVER / SELLER.....DEALING IN TRANSACTIONS ABOVE RS. 20000....

Simply if the said transaction is covered by any of the circumstances prescribed under Rule 6DD of the Income Tax Rules, No disallowance of the expenditure for the purchase made from the supplier shall be made u/s 40A(3).
Otherwise 100% disallowance shall be attracted under the abovementioned section.
ECS - agree with already explained by others.
