    • Hi rajendra shah

      Payments exceeding Rs. 20,000/- cannot be made in cash. If the same are made, the expense will be disqualified.
      TDS has to be deducted if the same falls under the relevant sections concerning TDS. It makes no difference as regards to TDS whether the payments are made in cash or through bank.
      If the required TDS is not deducted, 30% of the expense will be disallowed in the current year.
      To the next query, borrowing working capital has nothing to do with TDS. You can borrow any amount but TDS provisions will still be applicable.
      There is no limit on donations but it is better to get donations with the name and address of the donor. Anonymous donations should be as few as possible.
