What the issue here.

Deduction u/s 80G is allowed upto 10% of GTI which comes to Rs Rs 27,702. Deduction eligible is Rs 50% of Rs 51000 which comes to 25,500. SO claim deductiom of Rs 25500

50% of 10% of GTI (Assuming it falls under 50% category). It should be 13,851. In my view.

Well Act has capped limit on 10% on adjusted GTI. 50% is the limit is on the deduction of donation and not on GTI.

Maximum permissible donation is 10% of AGTI, and that is not allowed in full, you have to deduct based on qualifying limit.

Presuming you fall under the general(restricted 50%) category, your deduction amount would be restricted to 50% of 51000/-, i.e. 25500 which is within the limit of 10% of ATI. i.e.27,702/-

So claim 25500/- u/s 80G

Disagree

Maximum permissible donation is 10% of ATI or actual donation (Whichever is less). Thereafter 50% is applied on whichever is less.

80G(4)

Assume 10% ATI is 100 and donation is 100. We would claim 50 as 80G. Since donation amount does not exceed 10% of ATI.

Now assume 10% of ATI 90 and donation is 100, are you saying that you would claim 90 as deduction???? Eveen if it falls under qualifying limit of 50%?

10% of ATI is the calculation for maximum permissible donation not the qualifying deduction amount.

If still not convinced, put the above example in ITR.

Disagree.

50% is applicable to donation amount. First the amount of deduction is decided. so 50% of the donation is taken into consideration. THen it is compared with 10% of GTI. Whichever is lower is allowed as deduction.
