Kindly clarify

I need a clarification on 80G. Can you please clarify. As per my understanding for the donation made under "50% subject to qualifying limit" category, eligibility for deduction is as follows: " 50% of the amount donated or 10% adjusted Gross total income whichever is less". I am not clear whether my understanding is right, since there are different views. Recently I have seen in one forum one member says "the amount was restricted to " 50% of 10% of AGTI (in effect 5% of AGTI instead of restricting to 10% of AGTI (where 50% of donation amount is much higher" . If this interpretation is correct, can you please tell me which part of the 80 G rule conveys this. I read several times and tried to understand but the Acts and clauses are much complicated to understand. The rule says "......amount beyond 10% of the AGTI to be ignored..." which means the eligible donation amount for deduction is to be restricted to 10% of AGTI.
