Section 80G provides for deductions on account of donation made to various funds , charitable organizations etc. Generally no deduction should be allowed by the D.D.O. from the salary income in respect of any donations made for charitable purposes. The tax relief on such donations as admissible under section 80G of the Act, will have to be claimed by the tax payer in the return of income.
However in cases where employees make donations to the Prime Minister’s National Relief Fund, the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund or the Lieutenant Governor’s Relief Fund through their respective employers, it is not possible for such funds to issue separate certificate to every such employee in respect of donations made to such funds as contributions made to these funds are in the form of a consolidated cheque. An employee who makes donations towards these funds is eligible to claim deduction under section 80G. It is, hereby, clarified that the claim in respect of such donations as indicated above will be admissible under section 80G on the basis of the certificate issued by the Drawing and Disbursing Officer (DDO)/Employer in this behalf - Circular No. 2/2005, dated 12-1-2005.

In above circular can you please clarify the meaning of D.D.O or who is the person performing as D.D.O. whether (DDO)/ Employer mention in second part apply to upper part also? And please mention source of information from where we can see the meaning of D.D.O.

what if we deduct 80G Donations from salary itself?



20 April 2013 1. D.D.O -- Drawing and Disbursing Officer.
Source -- CBDT Circular 8/2012.

2. First part of the citation is redundant in view of above circular.
