06 April 2009 Mr X with virtually no income recd 5 lac from LIC which is fully exempt u/s 10(10D)

However tax liability appeared due to clubbing provision as minor son earned an income of 3 lac in that year.

Can Mr X claim deduction under Chapter VIA (80C, 80D, 80G) by depositing money recd from LIC.

In short, does Chapter VIA provide that deductions will qualify only if it is made from taxable income.

Could anyone pls clarify?

It is not required that the same income should be deposited.

Matching priciple is not required to be followed for claiming the deduction.
