Can we invest after death of person to avail 80C benefit before financial year closing

Hi,

My father has passed away last month. 

He could not invest to avail 80 C deduction in FY20-21.

Can I invest on his name to available 80 C deduction for him?

Thanks

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether investments can be made in the name of a deceased person to claim the Section 80C tax deduction before the financial year closes. The consensus is that it is not possible to invest in the name of someone who has already passed away, nor can legal heirs make such investments on their behalf for the deceased's benefit.

No as he passed away you cannot invest in his name
No, you can not invest in his name.
How can you invest in the name of one who is deceased.
Nor can be invested in the name of legal heirs.
