1)He can use the Sec.80C upto Rs.100000/- (+20000/- if the investment is made in the Central Govt. notified bonds) [Tution income can be claimed for the children)

2) if there is loan on the owned house then the loan interest upto Rs.150000/- under Sec.24(b) and the principal payment u/s.80C can be claimed and if bunglow is on rent then the same can be claimed against the income from house property.

3)if the parents are senior citizen, then the mediclaim paid can be claimed upto Rs.20000/- else upto Rs.15000/-, and if paid for self, spouse and childrenthen Rs.15000/- (only if not a senior citizen).
