We would like to know that one of our employee had purchased Mediclaim valid for 3 years in FY 2021-2022.
Now our question is that if she has not claimed in the financial year 2021-2022, can she claim it in the financial year 2022-2023 or not?
If yes, then our next question is, can she claim only for one year or can claim for the next year also. Since she has paid Rs.68,000 for 3 years, we know that Rs.25,000 can be claimed in 80D in one year.

As per sec. 80D sub sec. 4A... appropriate amount is allowed for deduction, even if premium is paid in lumpsum for more then one year.. It means you can allow deduction for FY 2022-23 & 2023-24 in proprotionate amount, subject to limit specified in the act..
