Medical expenditure on the health of Resident senior citizen and very senior citizen for whom no amount is paid to effect/keep in force an insurance on the health ( mode of payment other than cash)

if salaried person and company insurance covers parents then can i claim it or not?

The main condition to claim the deduction for medical expenditure incurred is that the senior citizen should not be covered under any health insurance policy.

if company insurance covers parents then he cannot claim deduction.

and if i have paid a certain amount too to extend the benefit to cover my parents ... this amount i can show in health insurance premium part?

No. Only Insurance premium can be claimed.

yea the company has provision to pay about rs 3000 extra to cover my parents too in the insurance which i took...so this 3000 can i claim in the health insurance premium?

Is the amount of Insurance premium you regularly paid increased by 3,000/- for every installment? Or was it one time payment?

one time for whole year...every year company allows us to take it , so eevry year i pay the extra amount

Only the amount mentioned as Insurance premium paid in the Receipt you received can be claimed.. so just a provision made is not premium... Have you checked the amount mentioned in receipt?

1. As per sec 80D(2) clause (c) and (d) talks about medical expenditure for self and family. 
2. The maximum amount that is available as deductions would be Rs. 50,000 per year. 
3. If you have paid a premium for your parents too then that shall also be included as a part of sec 80D. 
Please correct me if the above solution has an alternative view.

Provided that the amount referred to in clause [c] or clause [d] is paid in respect of a senior citizen and no amount has been paid to effect or to keep in force an insurance on the health of such person:

There is no co-relation between standard deduction and medical deductions.

You should check your form 16. The amount shown as 80d deduction will be the actual premium paid...
