Yes you can claim a deduction for contribution in PPF under section 80C. But the thing to remember is you can claim a deduction of maximum Rs. 1,50,000. This will be the total number of amount that can be claimed covering all your investments. Means to say which
tax saving investments under 80c you are choosing, no matter, you can claim only of Rs. 1,50,000 deduction under section 80C.
Now if I come to your second question, there is no limit to purchase NSC VIII. You can purchase National Saving Certificate (NSC) of any amount that you want.
