Have a disabled dependent? Save income tax using section 80DD
Do you have a handicapped dependent? Do you incur expenses on his or her maintenance? Do you undertake expenditure for their medical treatment? Have you invested in an insurance policy, where the beneficiary is your disabled dependent?
If yes, you could be saving income tax under section 80DD of the Income Tax Act.

Having a disabled dependent can be a very big responsibility. Apart from being fully responsible for the person, you can also incur a lot of expenditure for them.
The Income Tax Act comes to your rescue in this situation. Section 80DD of the IT act provides you a facility of claiming a deduction if you have a handicapped dependent. |
How much income tax can you save?
The deduction allowed is Rs. 50,000 / Rs. 75,000 depending on the extent of the disability of your dependent.
A deduction of Rs. 50,000 is allowed if you have a disabled dependent. Whereas a deduction of Rs. 75,000 is allowed if your dependent has severe disability.
Remember: this is a lump-sum deduction, and doesn’t depend on the amount that you spend on the disabled dependent.
The income tax that you can save would depend on the tax bracket that you fall into – it can range from Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 15,000 (for Rs. 50,000 deduction) or from Rs. 7,500 to Rs. 22,500 (for Rs. 75,000 deduction).
(To know the current income tax slabs, please read “Budget 2008 – Impact of Income Tax Slab / Bracket Changes on You”)
How do you qualify for this deduction?
You can claim deduction u/s 80DD if:
1. You spent on the medical treatment, training and rehabilitation of a disabled dependent (Amount spent for nursing is considered as expenditure on medical treatment)
Or,
2. You paid an amount for a scheme (offered by Unit Trust of India (UTI), Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) or any other insurer) meant to take care of the maintenance of your disabled dependent in case of your untimely death.
Some considerations for the insurance premium
- Not all schemes qualify – there are specific schemes meant for this purpose. Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) has a policy specifically for this purpose – it is called Jeevan Aadhar Plan.
- The policy has to insure your life. That is, it should be in your name.
- The policy has to pay an annuity (a fixed amount every year) or a lump sum amount for the benefit of the disabled dependent
- As the nominee for the policy, you need to name either (a) your disabled dependent, or (b) any other person or trust that would receive the money for the benefit of your disabled dependent
- In case your disabled dependent predeceases you (that is, dies before you), the amount in the policy is returned to you. This would be treated as your income for the year in which you receive it, and would be fully taxable in your hands.
What is considered as disability?
Disability would be as defined by the “Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995”.
It includes the following:
- Blindness
- Low vision
- Leprosy-cured
- Hearing impairment
- Locomotor disability
- Mental retardation
- Mental illness
A person with disability means a person suffering from not less than 40% of any of the above disabilities.
Severe disability means 80% or more of one or more of the above disabilities.
Who is qualified to claim this deduction?
Any individual or a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) can claim this deduction.
Please note that the individual or HUF has to be a resident of India – a non-resident Indian (NRI) can not claim deduction u/s 80DD.
Definition of relative: Who can be your disabled dependent?
For individuals, your spouse, son / daughter (any child), parents and brother / sister (siblings) can be your handicapped dependents.
For HUFs, any member of the HUF can be a disabled dependent.
The disabled person should be wholly or mainly dependent on you for his / her support and maintenance, and should not have claimed deduction under section 80U.
What are the requirements?
You need to have a proof of disability for your dependent to claim deduction under section 80DD. You need to get a certificate of disability from relevant medical authorities.
For people having Autism, Cerebral Palsy or multiple disabilities, form number 10-IA needs to be filled up. There are two other formats for mental illnesses and all other disabilities.
(Please scroll down to download the forms / formats / specimen)
The relevant authorities who can sign these forms are:
- A Neurologist having a degree of Doctor of Medicine (MD) in Neurology (or, in case of children, a Pediatric Neurologist having an equivalent degree)
or
- A Civil Surgeon or Chief Medical Officer (CMO) of a government hospital
Downloadable Forms
Here are the forms (or format of certificates) that you would require to claim deduction under section 80DD.
| Form / Format | Purpose |
| Download Form 10-IA | For Autism, Cerebral Palsy or multiple disabilities |
| Download the format | Certificate of mental retardation |

Re: Mental Retardation
Hi Amit,
You should be able to claim deduction u/s 80DD.
The amount depends on the percentage of disability - if it is certified as 90% by the authorities, you should be able to claim deduction of Rs. 75,000. Else, it would be Rs. 50,000.

Re: Mental Retardation
Hi Amit,
No problem at all - I am glad that I could help.
You office is in fact right - you need to have spent some amount on medical treatment of your dependent to claim this deduction.
But remember - section 80DD does not specify that you can only claim the spent amount as deductible. So, even if you spend Rs. 100 on the dependent, you can claim the full Rs. 50,000 / Rs. 75,000 as deduction.
Here is a link to the relevant section:

Re: claim u/s 80 DD
Dear Mr. Kulkarni,
as mentioned in the previous comment's reply, you do need to have spent some amount on medical treatment of your dependent to claim this deduction.
However, Sec 80DD does not specify that you can only claim the spent amount as deductible.
So, even if you spend Rs. 100 on the dependent, you can claim the full Rs. 50,000 / Rs. 75,000 as deduction.
The main document that you would need is certification about the disability - it has to be greater than or equal to 40% to get this benefit.

Thanks a lot for giving this much responce.But my office says me to produce any circular of IT deptt,which shows that even if I spent Rs.100 on my child, I will be eligible to get full Rs.50,000 exempted.Means I have no need to produce the details of expences.
Re: thanks for reply
Hello Mr. Kulkarni,
Section 80DD says that you can deduct Rs. 50,000 / Rs. 75,000 from your income if you have spent on medical treatment of a disabled dependent or if you have paid premiums of certain insurance policies.
It DOES NOT say that the amount spent is deductible upto Rs. 50,000 / Rs. 75,000. Thus, the interpretation is that Rs. 50,000 / Rs. 75,000 is deductible irrespective of the amount actually spent by you provided that you have spent something. (So, you still need som proof about the expenditure)
You can probably take the opinion of a practising chartered accountant (CA) since the amount involved is not small. If your company still doesn't agree, you can claim the deduction in your IT return and claim a refund.
(You can also check the exact wording of the section here: http://law.incometaxindia.gov.in/DitTaxmann/IncomeTaxActs/2008ITAct/section80DD.htm

Regarding Amount spent on PH dependant
Sir,
I am in the same problem as written above by R. Kulkarni.
I have PH dependant and my office is asking to show full 50,000/- expenditure on medical treatment or LIC Jeevan Adhar or UTI.
I am spending Rs 77000/- for education of my PH dependant. But my office is not accepting this educational expenditure towards "maintenance (training and rehabilitation) of PH dependant".
I am informed that training and rehabilitation (given in section 80DD) will be considered in medical training and Medical rehabilitation only.
I am also informed that education will not come under training and rehabilitaion.
I am planning to approach CA. I request your guidelines
Thanks
Narayana

Re: Regarding Amount spent on PH dependant
Hi,
Your office is right in saying that amount spent on education can not be counted towards section 80DD expenditure. The expenditure has to be on medical treatment, or related things like payment for a nurse, etc.
However, as I mentioned to Mr. Kulkarni, my interpretation of section 80DD is that if you have spent ANY amount on mendical treatment (or premium payment), you should be allowed the full deduction of Rs. 50,000 / Rs. 75,000.
It would be appropriate to consult a practising chartered accountant (CA) regarding this.
One request: Can you update me & all the readers about the CA's opinion through the comments here? That way, all of us would benefit!

reg. applicability of 80DD in case of CLL ( Chronic Lymphocites Lukeomia )
My father suffering from CLL & dependent on me . Can i avail the benefit of 80DD , is CLL ( A type of Blood Cancer )is covered under 80DD
thanks
thanks
Re: reg. applicability of 80DD in case of CLL ( Chronic Lymphocites Lukeomia )
Hello K K Biswas,
Cancer is not considered a disability, and therefore, you would not be able to claim any deduction under section 80DD.
However, you should consider section 80DDB, through which you can deduct any amount paid towards medical treatment of certain diseases - including melignant cancers.
You can deduct upto Rs. 40,000 (Rs. 60,000 for senior citizens) from your income. You can also claim deduction for amount spent on certain disabled dependents, including your parents.
Please read "Deduction of expenses on medical treatment – Section 80DDB" for all the details.

Re: Doctor not writing % on certificate
Hi,
It is necessary for the doctor to write the percentage of disability on the certificate, as the deduction is allowed only if the disability is at least 40%.
Please talk to the doctor and explain the situation to him.
Also, it is necessary to spend some amount on the medical treatment or medical care (like for a nurse) - giving money for taking care of day-to-day expenses does not make you eligible for this deduction.

Re: Certificate

Probably your company people are asking for it in the prescribed format. You can download these formats from the article above (you need to be logged-in).
If the company people still don't agree, you can claim the deduction in your IT return and get a refund.

Hi Raag.
Still they are not agreeing for private certificate....Any weblink to show them the details. please guide how to submit when IT return
Re: Hi Raag
Hi Raghu,
Well, a private certificate would not do. It has to be in the prescribed format as mentioned in the article.
Claiming it in IT return:
If the company people do not agree, it means they would be cutting more TDS from your salary.
You can claim the deduction in your IT return (under chapter VI deduction). Thus, your taxable income would reduce, and the corresponding tax would also reduce.
Since your company would have cut more TDS than necessary, you can claim a refund.

Hi
My son is 5 years old. He is totally depending on me I want to know what is the criteria of tax saving and any suggesions for me.
Re: Tax Saving
Hi Babli,
The tax benefit is available only if the dependent is mentally or physically challenged. So, if your son doesn't fall in that category, no income tax benefit would be available to you.
However, if you pay tuition fee for your son, it would be deductibel from your taxable income under section 80C.

Hi Sumathi,
Deductions under sections 80DD and 80DDB can not be claimed simultaneously for the same person.
Also, I do not believe Autism is covered for claiming deduction u/s 80DDB.
In any case, you should be able to claim deduction under section 80DD as you are spending on your son's medical expenses and therapy. (The insurance policy wouldn't count as it is not in your name).
If you provide the documentation prescribed in this article, your employer would consider this deduction while calculating the TDS.

Re: MEDICAL EXPENSES AND INTEREST ON HOUSING LOAN
Hello Mr. Rao,
The professional tax would be fully exempt from income tax.
I am not sure what you mean by PLI, but the amount paid for PF would be deductible from your income under section 80C.
(Please read "Saving Income Tax – Understanding Section 80C Deductions" for full details)
Since the construction of the house is not over, you would not be able to claim the registration / stamp duty as deductible from your income.
For the EMIs and interest paid through them, you would be able to claim income tax benefit only after you get possession of the house.
(Please read "Income Tax (IT) Benefits of a Home Loan / Housing Loan / Mortgage" for full details)
Amount spent on medical treatment (self or some dependents) can be deducted from your income under section 80DDB.
However, it is only for certain specified diseases. Paralysis is not covered there - so, you would not be able to deduct Rs. 16,000 from your income.

Re: 80ddb and 80dd
Hi Anil,
You can not claim deduction under both 80dd and 80ddb at the same time.
Claiming deduction under section 80dd would be better in your case, as it gives a higher deduction of Rs. 75,000 for severe disability.

from where I can get the circular of professional tax , road tax exemption for disabled person. Is there any exemption of sales tax when a disabled person buy a four or two wheelar vehical.
Re: Company not considering 80DD
Hi Mothilal,
I fail to understand how ca company can not consider these sections! In any case, please try talking to your HR or Finance department and try to convince them.
If they still do not agree, the only option for you is to claim these deductions when you file your return, and claim a refund.
Don't worry - you would get you due deduction one way or the other!
A request: Since you have been claiming these deductions, can you please write about your experience (getting the certificate, etc) so that our fellow readers can also benefit? Thanks!

Hi Prem,
These are state subjects, and the rules depend on the state you are living in. Therefore, you would need to check rules specific to your state. Following are some websites that you can consider.

Re: Sec 80 DD
Hi Adithya,
Only your spouse, child, parents or siblings can be considered as your handicapped dependents.
Therefore, unfortunately, you would not be able to claim any deduction.

Hello,
I need your advice to claim IT benefits under Sec80DD.
My son was born with a congenital anomlay- missing phalanges in total on his right hand. he doesnt have any of the five fingers. We have started surgeries to atleast get his right hand to assist in some way, though it is not possible to rebuild the same. In this process, we are incurring expenditure which as of now, are not eligible to be claimed under any available insurance schemes- government and private, because this being an external congenital anomaly. Please advice for claims under Sec80DD or anything else.

Re: How much amount i can claim from these section
Hi Madhav,
80DD is for a disabled dependent, whereas 80U is to claim deduction if a person is dependent himself.
A claim can not be made under both sections together. So, for you, section 80U would be applicable.
For all the details like the procedure and the deduction allowed, please read "Are you disabled? Save income tax under section 80U".
Re: Section 80 DD
Hi Vinay,
I would do some research and write an article about it. Thanks for suggesting a good topic for an article!

Re: Query regd congenital hand anomalies
Hi Kishore.
I am sorry, but I do not think that this is covered under any section of the IT act. Therefore, you would not get any income tax benefit for this.
Section 80DDB does deal with deductions with respect to medical expenditure, but even that section is for specific diseases, and your treatments would not qualify.

Trust for son's medical treatment
Dear Sir,
I was going through your site and decided to write to you for advice.
My son has a rare genetic diorder called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Though there is no cure currently, experts in the field (globally) are optimistic that a cure can be realistically expected by 2011 or 2012. However the treatment that is going to come will be really expensive. A conservative estimate would be around Rs 1 Cr an year. My husband is a defence officer and we have no means to earn this kind of money.
We were thinking of starting a trust or a simple bank account in his name so that friends and relatives (in India and abroad) could donate on a regular basis so build up some corpus so that by the time we are in 2012 we can think of starting our son on the treatment.
Request you to please guide us on how to go about it and also the tax implications of the same. We are totally ignorant about all this and just want to do something for our son
Your advice will be trully valuable. Look forward to hearing from you on the same.
Thanks and regards

Re: Trust for son's medical treatment
Hi RB,
I am sorry to hear about your situation. Let's hope that the sure is invented soon...
In my opinion, starting a trust would be a very good option. You can create a trust with the sole beneficiary being your son.
A trust would be a separate legal entity, which means that all the deductions (section 80C, etc) would be applicable to investments made for it. Also, the basic exemption limit of Rs. 1.6 Lakhs would also be applicable to it.
Thus, creating a trust and investing through it would be more tax efficient than investing yourself.
You can also try to apply and get certification for 80G deduction (people donating get 50% deduction of donated amount for income tax). This would help you provide an incentive to donors.
Wish you luck in collecting the necessary amount...

Re: Mental Retardation
Hi Devender,
In my opinion, the exemption amount is a total amount irrespective of the number of children with disability.
Therefore, you would not be able to claim the deduction twice if you have 2 children with disability.
