80d premium for 27 yrs old son
Querist : Anonymous
can i claim mediclaim insurance premium u/s 80 D.
pls reply?
There is no mention in Section 80D that premium for children whose age is more than 25 cannot claim deduction.
Dependent Children (i.e. legitimate or legally adopted children). Children above 18 years, if employed, can not be covered. Male children, if not employed, but a bonafide student can be covered upto age of 25 years. Female children, if not employed, can be covered until the time she is married.
I did not come across any such explanation n Section 80D.

Do you have any extracts from income tax department as well?
In Income tax it is mentioned as dependant children only, the word dependent children has not been further defined as mentioned in the link provided ( simpletaxindia), it may be personal views of the author Sandeep Kanoi.
Is it not possible that children above 25 are still dependent children?

can i claim or not and Mr ravi substantite ur definiton under tax.
There is no provision/restriction in Income tax with regards to age of dependent children
As per IT, deduction is available for mediclaim premium paid for “Self, Spouse or dependant children. Maximum deduction is Rs 15,000. In case any of the persons specified above is a senior citizen (i.e. 60 years or more), deduction amount has been enhanced to Rs. 20,000. “
It means if assessee himself is a senior citizen (60 years), he can claim deduction for Rs.20, 000/- for premium paid for self, dependent children and spouse.
Practically it is possible that a person who is age of 60 or more have a child who is age of 25 years. Hence, it seems Income tax has not placed any bar on age of a child, only a criterion is that he/she should be dependent. That’s it.
So you can claim the deduction.
As per Ministry of Health and Family welfare and CGHS a son is a dependent till he get married/attains age of 25 years/earns income whichever is earlier.
As per Tax law, I also don't find any specific definition for family and dependent.
You can go ahead or can refer further.
