Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a Drawing and Disbursing Officer (DDO), essentially an employer, is authorised to grant 80G deductions to employees. It explains that an employer cannot deny legitimate 80G deductions by directing employees to claim them only during Income Tax Return (ITR) filing. The employer has a responsibility to collect declarations and process eligible deductions submitted by the employee.

What is do?
Sir DDO means Drawing and Disbursing officer,this term is used in state govt offices for head of the office.... you can also read it as employer .....i want to know whether an employer can deny deductions claimed by an employee u/s 80G by asking him to claim the same while filing ITR ??

if yes then kindly provide relevant rule or circular also.
Employer can't do like that .

It's Employer responsibility to collect declaration from employees and take all eligible deductions as submitted by employee.

It's very wrong to say , claim the deduction while Filing ITR being an employer
Sir sometimes the employer may have some doubts regarding genuineness of the claim specifically u/s 80G.....

As per section 192[2B] Where an assessee who receives any income chargeable under the head "Salaries" has, in addition, any income chargeable under any other head of income [not being a loss under any such head other than the loss under the head "Income from house property"] for the same financial year, he may send to the person responsible for making the payment referred to in sub-section [1] the particulars of—
[a] such other income and of any tax deducted thereon under any other provision of this Chapter;
[b] the loss, if any, under the head "Income from house property".

As per the above section, the employee can give the details of any other income, tds thereon and house property loss(if any). The employer is not required to grant deduction 80G deduction while calculating tds as per section 192.
Then what is the motive of employee declaration ?
I don't think sec 192(2B) says anything about deductions u/s 80G
If you submit the exemptions of Section 10, 24 and 80C to 80U , all will be considered by the company through employee declaration
