25 May 2011 what about education loan repayment for dependent sister. is it allowed under chapter VI A?

26 May 2011 W.e.f. 1-4-2008(AY 2008-09) Deduction in respect of Interest on Educational Loan taken for a relative is also deductible.

Vide clause (e) of Section 80E(3), relative also includes the student for whom the individual is the leagl guardian.

A brother can be legal guardian of his dependent sister and as such interest is deductible U/s 80E.
