1827 views 1 replies

Hi All...

My querry is:

We can claim deduction u/s 80C for Senior Citizen Saving Scheme(SCSS). As per banking regulation Act, a person is a senior citizen who has crossed age of 60. However as per Income TAx Act it is 65. Now if a person, of age 61-64 invests in SCSS, whether he will be eligible for 80C.

Yes, he/she will be eligible for deduction u/s.80C upto an amount of Rs.100000/-. Please note that criteria of Senior Citizen under I Tax Act is for  Tax Rate/Minimum Exemption limit purpose only.
