Sir,I want to know, what kind of certificate of neurologist needed. Wheather exp. incurred on medicine are allowed or not. Medicine are continued as on date also and she is on recovering stage. It is true that if disability level is < 40% then no deduction u/s 80DDB. Pls Share the information, rule or procedure for claiming deduction u/s 80DDB
