09 February 2019As per 80C deduction for tuition fees payment allowable only when it paid towards any regular course and against tuition fees only.
My Question is as per CMA(India) Course there are two option, one is oral and another one in postal. In oral option institute is providing face to face classes to students and in fees receipt it is specially mentioned that Tuition fees for Oral. So, whether it would eligible for deduction u/s80C as tuition fees or not.

At times, parents have to make payments, other than tuition fees, to the educational institutions. Payments like development fees or donation or capitation fees, etc., are not covered and do not qualify for tax benefit. Also, if you haven't paid the fees on time, the applicable late fee paid will not be eligible.
* only tuition fee part is eligible for deduction u/s 80c
