Is it mandatory to collect hard copies for employee’s reimbursement i.e., mobile/ Internet/Food/Travel expense reimbursement (as per norms). If yes, please share the notification number. Or can all types of employee’ reimbursements be submitted in soft copy?

What notification do you require for this?
Whether the supporting vouchers for Claims by Employees, be in soft copy or hand copy
depending upon your Company's procedure and your Accounting system.

Hi Mprati
There isn't a universal standard or regulation that mandates whether employee reimbursement receipts must be submitted in hard copy or soft copy. The specific policies regarding reimbursement documentation may vary from company to company, and they may also depend on local regulations or tax laws.
In many cases, companies are transitioning towards accepting digital or soft copies of receipts for expense reimbursement. This is because electronic documentation is often easier to manage, store, and process.
If you are inquiring about a specific company's policy, you should consult your organization's employee handbook or contact the HR or finance department for the most up-to-date and accurate information. If your company has a specific policy, it should be clearly outlined in their official documentation.
Thanks,

Even a declaration by the employee concerned to the effect that he has incurred the amount is sufficient in many organisations. Whether to submit copies in soft, hard or to give a declaration depends on the company policy. However, for certain reimbursements like house rent, the employer will ask for lease deed or rent receipt in hard copy as mandated by the Income Tax Act.

Thank you All for your reply.
I thought of explaining my question in detail.
I want to know if the supporting vouchers for Claims by Employees are in soft copy or hand copy. Also, I am interested to know are they any verdict in Income tax says that all employee reimbursement should be in hard copy.
I came to know 9.13-Companies (Accounts) Rules,2014. Manner of books pf account to be kept in electronic mode:- On this grounds, we can still submit the employee reimbursement in Soft copy. Please correct me if I am wrong. I have attached the notification (The Companies Act, 2013 (SECTION 128), The Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014)
