Money sent to parents- Can deduction be claimed

This query is : Resolved 
Quick Summary
If you're sending money to your parents for their monthly expenses while you work in a different city, you generally cannot claim this as an income tax deduction or expense. This is because such payments are not considered business expenses unless they are in lieu of specific services rendered by your parents to your business or profession.
