Hi, I have Dr consultation bills and blood test bills of my children wife and my dependant mother. Can i use this to claim tax rebate under section 80 D or any other section please.

Ans: You can claim deduction under Section 80D and not 80L.

Yes, senior citizens aged 60 years or more can claim exemption under Section 80D for medical expenses, if you do not have health insurance coverage.

You can claim maximum deduction of Rs 50,000 in a financial year for the expenses incurred as per the limit of Section 80D.

Ans: Sec 80D covers any amount paid to effect or to keep insurance on the health or scheme notified by central government. Till now, RGHS is notified for Sec 80D but as scheme cover health insurance, it is likely to be covered in Sec 80D

Ans: Deduction for medical treatment is available to senior citizen if they don't have mediclaim.

Further, deduction of specific diseases is available upto 40k u/s 80DDB.

Ans: Dear Prashant,

Yes, you can claim a tax rebate for medical treatment under Section 80DDB of the Income Tax Act. This section allows for a deduction for expenses incurred towards the treatment of certain specified diseases.

However, there are some conditions to be aware of. For individuals below 60 years of age, the deduction can be up to Rs. 40,000 or the actual amount spent, whichever is less. Since you are 42 years old and your medical expenses are Rs. 57,000, you can claim a deduction of up to Rs. 40,000.

Please note that this is a general guideline and the actual conditions may vary based on your specific circumstances. It's always a good idea to consult with a tax advisor or chartered accountant for personalized advice.

I hope this helps!

Best regards
