Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether medical expenses for a pregnant wife are eligible for income tax benefits. It explains that while specific exemptions for medical expenditure have been replaced by a standard deduction (now Rs. 50,000 from FY 19-20), it's important to understand the current tax provisions for salaried individuals.

Not allowed anywhere in the act as far as I can see.

No benefit in income tax

No benefits under the Act.

I think you are talking about the exemption benefit u/10 and you are a salaried person. If you then still you don't take the benefit as now there is new provision of standerd deduction rs. 40000 instead of medical expenses exemption.

From fy 19-20 the standard deduction is Rs. 50,000.
