Hello Nilesh,

Sec 80DD where there is severe disability (disability is 80% or more) – fixed deduction of Rs 1,25,000.A certificate of disability is required from prescribed medical authority.

Where disability is 40% or more but less than 80% - fixed deduction of Rs 75,000.

i hereby clarify its was bybass surgery and not disability so please let me know the deductions

If any surgery is conducted and expenditure is incurred for himself or on his dependend a sum of Rs. 40,000 shall be allowed under this section, however the same shall be increased if the same expenditure is incurred on age oabove 60 the same shall be Rs. 60,00 and in case of expenditure incurred above 80, the same shall be allowed upto 80,000.
