Dear Student,
Read the following text carefully-
It is clarified that the amount allowable as tuition fees shall include any payment of fee to any university, college, school or other educational institution in India
.
except the amount representing payment in the nature of development fees or donation or capitation fees or payment of similar nature.
.
Coclusion-
Any payment which is not in the nature of development fees or donation or capitation fees or similar, is treated as tuition fee.
So, you may deduct fee other than tuition fee also.

Defining 3 Fees without a fee is possible at only CAClub.

Maintenance Fees can not be said to be a development fees like item. It is charged for the maintenance of school building or furniture or apparatus or otherwise.
Term Fee : A periodical Fee. You can say it as the MAIN FEE and can keep at par with the term tuition fee.
.
Extra Curricular Fee: Charged for the activities like games, sports, cultural programmes etc.
.
Any of them or all can be claimed as deduction U/s 80C.
