07 March 2011 The Finance Act, 2010 has inserted a new section 80CCF in the Income Tax Act, 1961, which provides that an amount upto the extent of Rs. 20,000/- paid or deposited during the financial years 2010-11 as subscription to long-term infrastructure bonds shall be allowed as deduction in computing the income of an individual or a Hindu Undivided Family. The deduction will be over and above the existing overall limit of Rs. 1,00,000/- available under section 80C, 80CCC and 80CCD of the said Act on savings and other prescribed investments. This amendment takes effect from 1.4.2011 and is applicable for the subscriptions to eligible/notified infrastructure bonds made during the Financial Year 2010-11.
