I will never advice you for tax evasion Mr. Palash. But as a matter of tax planning, you can claim deductions u/s-80C to 80U, deduction u/s-57(iii) if commission income shown u/h "Income from Other Sources" or applicable deductions u/s-30 to 37 (if books of accounts are maintained) or adhoc deduction (if books of accounts are not mintained & commission<Rs.60,000/-) in case commission income shown u/h "Income from business or profession". Besides, if your client bought residential property, which if self occupied, interest on borrowed capital u/s-24(b) can be claimed upto Rs.1.5 lakhs which can be set-off from salary income too. Even your client can take additional deduction for interest on borrowed capital u/s-80EE upto maximum Rs.1 lakh (if really can) for getting house loan sanctioned during F.Y. 2013-14 w.e.f AY 2014-15. So u can work it out in these ways to minimize your's client tax liability to the maximum possible extent.
