Deduction u/s 80C

Dear Sir,

Admission & Donation fees are not eligible foe deduction u/s 80C........

Only tuition fee is allowed.................

section 80C(xvii) specifically provides that any university, college, school or other educational institution situated within India are liable for deduction.

since ur son is studing in UK , it is not allowed as deduction u/s. 80C

Dear Nafisa,

I think UKG is "Upper KG" & not  "United Kingdom"......:))

Ya if it is UK then u r rite not eligible........

Only tuition fees is allowed for deduction under section 80C of the income tax ac, 1961

ya Amir u r right

u said admission fees are not allowed

but section 80C says dat

"tuition fees (excluding any payment towards any development fees or donation or payment of similar nature), whether at the time of admission or thereafter"

it specifically state dat at d time of admission. it means it is allowed as deduction u/s. 80C.

give ur comment

Dear Nafisa,

Words to be interpreted in the context in which they have been used.....I mean I cannot simply pick 1 word "adimission" from the whole sentence & say that "admission fee" is allowed...........

what is eligible is "tuition fee -  whether paid at the time of admission or otherwise".........but it has to be tuition fee only & cannot be any other fee......though it can be paid at any time .........

I hope this clarifies ur doubt..........

yes, 

only 'TUITION fees'  is eligible 4 deduction u/s 80C.....admission fee,lab fee, etc. and donation is disallowed!!

Dear Friends,

   Please note taht the deduction is allowed only if the child is studying in School. deduction is not allowed for playschools &  other pre nursery schools

U can claim only tution fees from ur admission fees u/s 80 C.

only tution fees for 2 children u/s 80c is allowed

Dear Vishal,

Pre school and nursery school are also schools!!!!

Fees paid to regular educational institution, fees to play schools or crèches will be allowed as deduction.Deduction is not allowed for private tuition, coaching center.

School must be situated in India.

Moreover the deduction is allowed only for two children.
