Dear Anmeet and Shiroor

I think both of you didnt get my question.

i know for senior citizen limit is 20000 for AY 15-16.

But the system is accepting 26302 and NOT limiting it to 20000.

My question was that why it was not limiting it to Rs. 20000.

Anyhow i got the answer after i studies section 80D from the Act.

the reason system is accepting more than rs 20000 in case of a senior citizen is because if a senior citizen also has parents and he has taken health insurance policy in respect of his parents also then he is allowed maxium 35000 if his parents are less than 60 and 40000 if his parents are more than 60.

thats why system accepting more than 20000 but in no case it will accept more than 40000.

regards
