Thanks all of you for the replying..

Finance Act (No. 2) 2009 inserted clause 'c' to subsection 3 which says“higher education” means any course of study pursued after passing the Senior Secondary Examination or its equivalent from any school, board or university recognised by the Central Government or State Government or local authority or by any other authority authorised by the Central Government or State Government or local authority to do so;]"

Thus according to me loan only if availed for education in India, would be eligible for deduction..!!

Am I right in assuming this?

AS PER CLAUSE E, HIGHER EDUCTION MEANS ANY COURSE AFTER PASSING   

I.E AFTER PASSING the Senior Secondary Examination or its equivalent from any school, board or university recognised by the Central Government or State Government or local authority or by any other authority authorised by the Central Government or State Government or local authority to do so.

CONDITION FOR RECOGNISED BY CG/SG IS FOR BASIC EDUCATION WHICH IS REQUIRED FOR HIGHER EDUATION.

I.E HIGHER EDUCATION MAY BE OUTSIDE INDIA.

AS PER MAXIMUM ARTICLES ON SECTION 80E, THERE IS NO CONDITION THAT COURSE SHOULD BE IN INDIA..
