Also apart from that, this deduction for payment of tution fees for full time education stems from Sec. 80C(2)(xvii). Now, as per Sec. 80C(4), it reads as: -" for the purposes of clause (xvii), in the case of an individual, any two children of such individual." So, this entire clause is applicable only to an individual for tution fees paid for his/her two children only.
