All about Section 80c of Income Tax Act

Section 80L the former Act was used to provide deduction of interest earned on, say, a National Savings Certificate or a bank deposit up to a limit of Rs 12,000. But now all these are gone .In their place has come Section 80C — “u/s 80CCC, & u/s 80CCD”, as the Finance Bill puts it. Thus, the new Section 80C of the Income Tax Act proposed in Union Budget gives you a bigger tax break than what the current regime offers.

  • Deduction in respect of Life Insurance Premia, Contribution to Provident Fund, etc.
  • Rs 1 lakh can be invested under this section without any individual sub-limits except in the case of Rs 10,000 in pension funds.
  • Sections 88, 80L, 80CCC and 80CCD is clubbed in.

Schemes eligible for Section 80C benefits -

  • PPF
  • ELSS – Mutual Funds
  • NSC
  • KVP
  • Life Insurance
  • Senior Citizen Saving Scheme 2004
  • Post Office Time Deposit Account

The New Years Eve…………….!

Hi People,

On 31st Dec 2009, which was a pre new year day and every one in the metros are planning for new year party my country India.

I with my friends planned go in a pub and have a bash….!

Like always, we enjoyed the night and got into one of my friend’s car towards our final destination…(not the movie) hope so….. towards our home. We were drunk so no one was interested in any talk. I was on front seat and laid my head on the glass window though it was closed as AC was on. The street lights was flashing in my eyes and with that the polluted hoardings in our Mumbai got my attention to it.

What could be the picture they paint for us. No one most probably likes the highlighted hoarding, specially the youngsters of my age as I am 20 now, even I was bored so thought of looking at the hot girl wearing a saree of some designer in one of the hoarding,and later on the ppt goes on- Sbi home loans, the Mobile Operators,the 3 idiots movie and so on………..!

We were on the highway(freeway) when I saw a hoarding of life insurance quoting “Guaranteed protection against your Life for 20” and next Health Insurance quoting ”Pays your entire Medical Expenses”..!

I Had a laugh and told my friends “ hey do they really mean what they say, i mean what is the use of these things for us”. And there comes the reply from one of my pal “shut up your mouth” dude.

Another one speaks “ its quite useful tool for every individual if they met with any kind of illness or disease or even useful for those who met with an accident especially at their young age …..” one from back claim “do mean us” and I said stop these nonsense you guys and look for the cops as we are drunk! My friend who was driving cried in saying “ will you stop dooming.

Suddenly he brake the car. I cried out “what happened, did you saw cops!” No, look there, someone hit these locale people sleeping over the footpath. Alas! There were three men lying unconscious and the nearby people were helping them to take them to nearby hospital. I asked one of the person from there by seating in the car, “kya bhai kya hua hai yahan” means “what has happened here”. The man told “ ek gaadi ne unhe kuchal diya” say “A car hit them and gone away”

Someone from the locale contact police and we heard the siren so we ran from there as we were drunk.

After we have left the spot- I thought that how could they pay the bill of the hospital the case is too serious. Would they manage to pay the big operation bills! I got emotional for them. Replied one of my friend “Here Health Insurance and Life Insurance Plays the main Role. And I started talking to myself that if they had any cheap or low cost health insurance,whatever may the operation high,they did not have to worry as the Insurance company would take care of it.!’

As Aamir Khan Quoted “ALL IS WELL”…………………!
