Tuition fees for a 23-year-old daughter's college:
• 80C covers tuition fees paid for full-time education of up to 2 children, at any university, college or school in India. Age isn't restricted, so fees for a 23-year-old's full-time course qualify (tuition component only, excluding development or donation fees).
• Rs 4,598 tuition fees can be claimed within the Rs 1.5 lakh 80C limit (old regime only).
• Hostel, mess and exam fees aren't tuition fees, so they're not deductible.
