Medical expenses deduction on Grandparents

Hi,

I'm the only person who earns in my family. My grandmother needs some medical treatment and I'll pay for it. Can I claim some income tax deduction?

I checked in section 80D, that deduction is not allowed on grandparents.

please guide.

Quick Summary
If you're covering your grandmother's medical treatment costs, you might be wondering about income tax deductions. While Section 80D doesn't typically cover grandparents, there may be other avenues. Depending on the specific illness and your circumstances, deductions under Section 80DDB might be possible. For self-employed individuals, further tax planning opportunities could exist.

Not allowed in 80D
allowed for specified illness in 80DDB
If you are a self employed individual, then some tax planning can be done for the same.
