1. The certificate is to be obtained in Form 10-IA. It is to be obtained from a Government Hospital only.
2. Request your doctor to issue a certificate on his letter head. take the certificate and reports to a Government doctor and request him to issue the certificate in Form 10-IA.
3. Deduction amount is 50,000 (75,000 in case of severe disability).
