Yes it is disallowed however, Where any payment is made to an employee of the assessee or the heir of any such employee, on or in connection with the retirement, retrenchment, resignation, discharge or death of such employee, on account of gratuity, retrenchment compensation or similar terminal benefit and the aggregate of such sums payable to the employee or his heir does not exceed Rs. 50,000, payment is allowed

Payment of Wages to single worker above Rs. 20000/- shall attract section 40A(3). Hence it is advisable to pay the wages within the limit of Rs. 20000/-.

but when it paid to group of persons and cash is given to a single person for the purpose of distribution you should check wages & salry sheet whether payment for each person in such a group exceeds rs.20000

If the payment is to be made on the a day when bank is closed because of Holiday or Strike.
Since the nature of payment is "wage", provisions of sec.40A(3) applicable and disallowed if paid inexcess of Rs.20,000/- to a single worker . No. of vouchers immaterial.
We should see the nature of payment. If it is expenditure, and payment is in cash above Rs.20,000/- the same will be disallowed.

What about Cash payment above Rs. 20,000 to any classes on a single day?
Supposedly they give a huge discount if we pay the amount at once. Will it be disallowed?
