80C SSC DEDUCTION


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
A client claimed an Rs 1,50,000 deduction under Section 80C for an SCSS deposit in AY 19-20. The question is whether they can claim another Rs 1,50,000 deduction in AY 20-21. The expert clarifies that the Rs 1,50,000 deduction under 80C is typically only claimable in the initial year of the deposit. To claim 80C deductions in subsequent years, additional investments of Rs 1.5 lakhs are required annually. Any interest earned on the SCSS deposit is taxable under 'Income from Other Sources', with a potential Rs 50,000 deduction available under Section 80TTB.
