Out of my total Salary, i am getting Rs. 15,000.00 as Medical Allowance which is a component of Gross Salary. I do not have any medical insurance policy and not paying amount as medical insurance premium. Can i claim deduction for Rs. 15,000.00 which i received as Medical allowance from the employer ?
