17 August 2025 Here are the key points to understand and strengthen your response:
Tuition Fee Component Only: Deduction under Section 80C applies solely to tuition fees for full-time education—fees like transport, hostel, library, development, donations, etc., are excluded.
₹1.5 Lakh Limit: This covers tuition and other investments/expenses under 80C combined.
Child Eligibility:
Individual taxpayer: up to 2 children
Both parents taxable: up to 4 children (2 each)
Claim Eligibility:
Applicable only to individual taxpayers (not HUFs/corporates)
Fees must be paid to institutions in India and claimed in the same financial year.
Salaried employees: submit receipts plus Form 12BB; otherwise, claim in ITR.
Allowable Alongside Other Benefits: You can also claim Children’s Education Allowance (₹100/month) and Hostel Allowance (₹300/month) under Section 10(14)—these are separate from Section 80C.
