My son studying B.Tech from SRM University, Chennai on full time course. I paid tuition fees as Rs.1,85,000/- under heading of Course Fees also paid Rs.15,000/- , & 15,000/- under heading of Book Fees & Career Development respectively. My employer does not give benefit of 80c of Tuition fees because in fee receipt mention as "Course Fees" not Tuition fees. Please clarify.

Sir I Have Check Your Receipt But In Receipt Not Given Any Bifurcation Of Rs.185000/-, Normally The Fees Collected By Institute Includes Various Thing Like Hostel Rent, Liabrary Deposit.. Examination Fees Etc. That Bifurcation Is Not Given In This... You Can Claim Upto Rs.150000/- As Deductoin U/s 80C Provided More Than or Equal to Rs.150000/- Included As Tution Fees In This.

So Better To Get One Confirmation From Uniersity By Requesting Them.
