Dear Sandeep,

The limit u/s 80 DD is in respect of ASSESSEE & NOT FOR NUMBER OF DEPENDENTS..

THAT IF AN ASSESSEE HAS 2 OR 3 DEPENDENTS THEN ALSO THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OD DEDUCTION U/S 80DD CANNOT EXCEED  50,000 or 75,000

DEDUCTION U/S 80DD CANNOT EXCEED  50,000 or 75,000

HI Mukesh

As per the  new amendment maximum limit is 1,00,000 for 80DD.

 

 

 

Ya Brother u r rite, It has incresed to 1 lac with the second finance act 2009

Pls Ignore the above reply since benefit of 80DD can be extended to number of dependents.
