In case of donations whihc are eligible for 100% deduction, you will get the deduction for the full amount without applying the provision of Adjusted Gross total Income.

however for donations whihc are eligible for only 50% of the deduction, then the aggregrate of the donations eligible for 50% deduction should not exceed 10% of teh Adjusted Gross total Income.

Adjusted GTi means GTI after claiming the deductions under Chapter VI-A other than donations. On the balance it should be taken as 10% and deduction only upto 10% of that adjusted GTI shud be taken.

For more details, please go through the Section 80G from teh following link:
