The condition that investment / payment for 80C should be out of the 'assessee's income' was in the section stood prior to 01/04/1991. Section 80C was omitted by the Finance Act,1990 and re introduced through Finance Act,2005 wherein that condition was taken away meaning thereby, tuition fee paid out of borrowed funds qualifies for deduction under section 80C. Ref:- 80C(2)
