Since Govt. has increased its contribution in NPS from 10% to 14% w.e.f. 01.04.2019. I want to know that Can contribution 14% in NPS be claimed u/s 80CCD(2) or 10% in NPS be claimed u/s 80CCD(2)?

14% will be allowed as deduction.
The provisions under Section 80 CCD (2) come into effect when an employer is contributing to the NPS of an employee. The contributions towards NPS can be made by an employer in addition to those made towards PPF and EPF. The contribution made by the employer can be equal to or higher than the contribution of the employee. This section applies to only salaried individuals and not to self-employed individuals. The deductions under this Section can be availed over and above those of Section 80 CCD (1).
Section 80CCD (2) allows salaried individuals to claim deductions up to 10% of their salary which includes the basic pay and dearness allowance or is equal to the contributions made by the employer towards the NPS.
