My query is can both husband and wife claim deduction u/s 80GG. Husband is self employed and wife is salaried employee. They pay rent wrt to a rented flat where the rent agreement is in the husband's name. Can both of them claim deduction? None of them own a property in their name.

Husband only can claim the Deduction. . An assessee can claim the benefit by following Rule 11B which requires the assessee claiming the deduction to file Form No 10BA. . The particulars in the said form are relevant in the case of the Husband only. .
