As i have exhausted section 80C maximum limit of 1.5 Lac due to PF contribution, Tution fees, getting additional 50K through NPS in 80CCD(1B). Now, my new employer is having a monthly NPS deduction option from my salary, however HR confirmed that my employer does  not do matching contribution. Can i get any additional benefits apart from 1.5Lac and 50k? or in 80CCD (2). I heard 10% of basic can be claimed to NPS over and above 80C and 80CCD(1B), please clarify
