Quick Summary

This discussion addresses a PSU employee's concern about a Section 80GG deduction being cancelled after receiving a demand notice under Section 154. The key issue is eligibility for the 80GG deduction, which is generally available only to individuals who do not receive House Rent Allowance (HRA) from their employer and are not salaried. If the employee receives HRA, the Income Tax Department's action is likely correct. If HRA is not received, the employee can appeal the decision.

80gg is available only to those who do not receive hra from the employer. It's for the non salaried Assessee.

As you are saying you are a PSU employee if you receive HRA you are not eligible to take deduction u/s 80GG. if you are not getting HRA then you are eligible. if you are eligible you can file rectification return. otherwise you have to pay tax.
