This is very famous case law.
CIT vs Abhay L Khatau (1986) 162 ITR 648 (Bom)
If income of one person is clubbed in the hands of another person then deduction under chapter VIA ( except u/s 80U) relating to such income shall be available to the person in whose hand income has clubbed.
So deduction of 80G is permissible.
