Can I claim deduction u/s 80DD and 80DDB for medical expenses on my 84 year father-in-law who is dependent on me, these are also supported by Medical Certificate in Form 10-IA with Hospitalisation Bills. My employer has verified the Medical Certificate and Hospital Bills but are refusing the duduction that these are not available for a dependent “father in law”. Can you please provide a case law or precise section in the IT Act specifically providing the expenses under these sections for 84 year old dependent “father in law”.

Ans: Income tax allow deduction for amount paid to "parents" and "father in law" does not fall in the category of parents so deduction will not be allowed.
