Yes, it's always better to maintain Voucher , it is important for Audit purpose .
where you are having documentary evidence in such case not much issue , however maintenance of internal vouchers should be mandatory , for example if you are spending money in Cash to tea vendor of office , House keeper and other office expenses ,wherein they are not issuing any Invoice or bill , so in this case Accountant has to prepare Vocher and take signature on voucher for receipt of cash , It is important for Audit purpose . So maintain all types of Vocher both Internal and external

It's not mandatory. One can maintain the books of accounts in electronic mode also. It's permitted under companies act

Voucher is a mandatory document to authenticate any transaction whether debit or credit. There are other vouchers journal for adjustment and other rectification entries.

Each and every transaction should have explanation. So if transactions are less then one can use excel also with explanation
