I am an IT professional, and the only source of my income is my salary.
I would like to know if I give a portion of my salaried income to one of my parent, will that portion be exempted from my income tax base amount i.e. will it reduce my taxable income.
Also I would like to know will this exemption be over and above the 1 lakh limit which is allowed for various tax free investments such as L.I.C. premiums etc.
Would be really grateful to you, if you can satisfy my query.
