can a non working person claim standard deduction of 40000?

Replies (8)

NO, only  Salaried/Pension Person Can claim Standard deduction of 40,000.

then where does a non salary person claim for medical expenses for medicines

80D allows Medi- claim deduction
Also medical expenses for senior citizens
There are other sections which expenses on specified diseases.
But standard Deduction only to salaried persons from salary income

In Lieuof  annual transport allowance of Rs 19,200 and Rs 15,000 medical reimbursement there is standard deduction f 40,000 for Salaried employee , non Salary Employed cant claim this.

 

if you paid for Mediclaim plan than claim deduction in 80D.

no mediclaim plan...only medicine based on doctor prescripttion...where to claim them?

No, you cannot claim such Amount.

Preventive health Check up-upto 5000 you can Claim in 80D but no medicine bill payment allowed.

so senior citizens without mediclaim can get only for lab tests under preventive health checkup... not for the medicines?

 in (a) we fill the mediclaim, in (c) we fill the tests done...but what about (b) what can be filled there? plz guide
