22 March 2010 Sir

I have paid a fees of Rs. 29000/- and Practicals Fess of Rs. 10000/- total Rs. 39000/- for my daughter to International College for Girls, Inetrnational School of Informatics & Management, Jaipur for pursuing M.Sc. (Micro Economics).

My Query is, since the receipt does not mention Tution Fees, Whether the Fees for MSc of Rs. 29000/- be termed as Tution Fees for Claiming Deduction u/s 80C?

And Whether Practicals Fees of Rs. 10000/- also be termed as Tution Fess for claiming Deduction u/s 80C?

22 March 2010 My view is that Rs 29,000 will be termed as tution fees and will be allowed for deduction u/s 80C. However, its better to confrim the nature of Fees from the college.

The fees of Rs.10,000 for practicals will not be allowed as deduction u/s 80C.
