Quick Summary
This discussion explores the validity of a Rs 50,000 deduction under Section 80D for a senior citizen mother, even without a health insurance policy. Participants clarify that Section 80D allows deductions for medical expenses and health insurance premiums paid for parents, with specific limits based on age. The conversation also touches upon whether the deduction should be from the employee's or the DDO's salary and the conditions under which such a deduction is permissible.

Who is DDO?
Generally govt organization's have provision to deduct health insurance.. Amount deducted is eligible for 80D.

But generally they deduct for self ..

If your mother is in employment then it is fine
