Hi, My understanding if I read the clauses below I do not believe if the income tax limit for us as in the visually impaired persons has been raised as we get such an exemption under 80 U of the income tax act.
Experts on the list please comment if now our tax limit will be RS 235000 for the financial year 2009-2010. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rama Chari Sent: Monday, July 06, 2009 8:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AI] Disability Tax incentives ----- Original Message ---- From: Mohammed Asif Iqbal <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, 6 July, 2009 3:46:55 PM Subject: [AI] Disability Tax incentives Dear All, I was viewing this budget and copying this relevant claus for your reference. 88. With a view to providing interim relief to small and marginal taxpayers and senior citizens, I propose to increase the personal income tax exemption limit by Rs.15,000 from Rs.2.25 lakh to Rs.2.40 lakh for senior citizens. Similarly I also propose to raise the exemption limit by Rs.10,000 from Rs.1.80 lakh to Rs.1.90 lakh for women tax payers and by Rs..10,000 from Rs.1.50 lakh to Rs.1.60 lakh for all other categories of individual taxpayers. Further, I also propose to increase the deduction under section 80-DD in respect of maintenance, including medical treatment, of a dependent who is a person with severe disability to Rs.1 lakh from the present limit of Rs.75,000. Expert on AI plese comment, is this applicable for us? I mean now we will get tax exemption of Rs. 1lac ?
