Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to claim tax deductions for Mediclaim premiums paid in advance. While you might pay for multiple years at once to get a discount, the deduction under Section 80D is typically claimed annually. You cannot claim the entire amount for three consecutive years; instead, you should divide the total premium paid by three and claim the proportionate deduction for each respective year.
