17 January 2009 Since the lady is Contributing the VPF, it is allowable u/s 80C as a deduction from the GTI, However one has to see that whether she is contributing to PPF or EPF. the self contribution to the PPF is allowed of course without any hurdle.

However the total deduction u/s 80C is currently 1 lac.

Thanks
