80c deduction Abc person has opened ppf account in the name of his wife & 2 children (one is minor) ..during the A.Y. 2010-11 .he has invested total Rs. 20000 in these three ppf a/c ( one in name of wife & other 2 in his children-one is minor )… My question…abc can claim deduction of Rs. 20000/- under 80c in this year??? If not under which provision he gets deduction??? Or for claiming deduction the only option is abc has to open ppf a/c in his own name!!!!!
