21 September 2010 as per income tax Act, senior citizen means a resident Indian whose age is more than 65 years at any time during P/Y.

amount allowed u/s 80 D is maximum RS 15000 but in case of senior citizen, it is Rs 20000.
as in ur case, A's father is senior citizen, deduction u/s 80D would be Rs 20000, as one of the insured is senior citizen.
