Please refer rule 6DD of IT Rules. There u can find exceptional cases, where cash payments in excess of Rs.20000/- is allowed.
payment to Govt in cash is allowed . The rules say"
where the payment is made to the Govt., and, under the rules framed by it, such payment is required to be made in legal tender . If Govt will accept cash only towards regn fees, then there will not be any disallowances. Pl retain challan/ack issued by Govt dept., & attach with Return.,

Actually sec 40 A (3) came in to force jus to stop the fake payments,, assessee used to show so much expenses in cash as it is not traceable by it authorities... So to stop such things tis section came in to force,,,,..
and there is provision in income tax regarding payment of cash to local authorities or goverments... Such exp is a deductable exxpendi as there is proof of facts..

I agree with what Mr. Iyer said. Payment to government offices may be made in cash exceeding 20000/-. But in insurance expenses this point is not considered- keep this in mind.
