I have read that maximum 14% of salary (Basic+DA) is allowed as deduction u/s 80CCD(2). But is there a maximum amount of limit of the said deduction ? If my salary is 15.00 lac (Basic +DA) and 14% of which comes to Rs. 2,10,000/-. Whether employer can deduct 2,10,000/- as NPS on behalf of me ? And whether I can get deduction of 2,10,000/- from my salary income ?
