* Deduction u/s 80CCD: 

There is a further classification of this particular Section.

Section 80CCD(1)

Eligible Assessee: Individual Only (whether Employed or Not).

Deduction for: Payment towards the NPS Pension Account.

Max. Deduction: 10% of Salary (Basic+DA only) /20% of GTI (in case of Self Employed) [but deduction allowed in combination with 80C]


[Imp. Note- The AGGREGATE of Deductions u/s 80C, 80CCC, 80CCD(1) shall not exceed Rs. 1,50,000]

Section 80CCD(1B)

Eligible Assessee: Individual Only (whether Employed or Not).

Deduction For: Payment toward the NPS Account made by the Employee/Self Employed person can be diverted to this section when 80CCD(1) limit has exhausted 

Max. Deduction: Rs. 50,000 - THIS IS AN ADDITIONAL DEDUCTION i.e. allowed without combining with 80C.

Section 80CCD(2)

Eligible Assessee: Individual Only (must be Employed)

Deduction For: Employer contribution towards the NPS account of Employee. 

Max. Deduction: 10% of Salary (Basic+DA only) - THIS IS AN ADDITIONAL DEDUCTION  i.e. allowed without combining with 80C

If still not clarified please revert. Thanks
yes you can claim the rest of the amount that hasn't been covered under section 80ccd(1) in section 80ccd(1b)
