Ppf deposit - u/s 80c

1) A friend  deposited a sum  of  Rs 1,50,000/- into my PPF account\.

(The Rs 150,000/- was subsequently returned to my friend) 

2) will I be eligible for u/s 80C  deduction?

Please help!

If you have repaid the amount by any banking channel (by treating the same as temporary loan); you will be allowed for 80C deductions.

Otherwise it will be treated as gift, which will attract tax liability.

Since it has gone into your PPF Account , 80C will be available.

Treatment as loan or Gift will not vitiate the allowability under section 80C
