1.80 to 5.00 ..10% ...so liablity of 5000 would be set off with 50000 investment in NSC

interest is taxable income, only principal is allowed under sec 80C

In addition to what U S Sharma has already explained...

Interest earned on NSC can be claimed as deduction under 80C only if the same is added/reported under income from other sources. So net-net - deduction is available on NSC acrued interest evry year for the first 5 years.
