Answer: None of these will qualify for deduction under Section 80C of the Income-Tax Act, 1961.

No sir, only academic tuition fee
No sir, but in the wake of queries above, in my view there should be change in law to meet the expenses of dependent siblings also, due to Indian system of caring families.
No sir, only tuition fee qualifies. it specifically mentions tuition fee, examination fee and registration fee has character of of administration nature , thus disqualified.
Same as above, No Hindu no muslim, all are Indian or say humans. However Salam to your jajba !!! You will get benefit maximum of two children in a year on paid basis, section does not specify that the children should be your biological children.

Dear Mr. CA Sandeep Kanoi,
I shall be very grateful to you, if you could reply on my below question.
I have been paying tution fees of my daughter in March for the Academic year 16-17. As per above we can consider this amount for tax exemption of year 16-17. Please suggest.
Dear Mr. George,
Section 80C starts : In computing the total income of an assessee, being an individual or a Hindu undivided family, there shall be deducted, in accordance with and subject to the provisions of this section, the whole of the amount paid or deposited in the previous year, being the aggregate of the sums referred to in sub-section (2), as does not exceed 1.5 lac.
Since ii is on paid basis, you will get the benefit in the year in which you pay it, so fee paid in March 2016, benefit will lapse after 31.03.2016, no benefit will be available for FY 2016-17.
Dear Sandeep
in case tution fees is paid in advance then deduction will be available on payment basis or in year of expense? e.g. Fees paid in March 2016 for FY 16-17 of Rs. 1 lacs then deduction will be allowed in FY 15-16 or FY 16-17? Please clarify.
Dear Mr Rakesh,
Reply is the same as to Mr. George above.
Suppose my expenditure on child’s education is Rs.60000. My employer reimbursed me Rs.20000 as children education allowance. What will be the tax implication? Will Rs. 60000 come under 80C?

Thanx and regards
Hi All ,
This is who ever is given comment.
Please remember if you are giving tuition fee for your child and claiming for income tax under 80c , there is catch in all these as our government is playing safe ,
1) the max limit is 1,00,000 .
Now suppose your salary is 5,00,000 per annum in which government rules on tax act 1961 says that 2.50.000 is exempted then this 1,00,000 is part of 2,50,000.
2) They are playing smart and safe that no late fees and Donation will be included means if you are paying donation say example 2,00,000 to any institute or school, your money is gone and you have to go to either ‘C’ grade school or depend to bribe the government official to get the admission as still corruption exists.
3) Now suppose you have taken the education loan and paying interest , as per the rule the Taxable is interest. but if you are taking loan then it should include the taxable income on 40% of education loan not interest. where will include the interest and loan amount .
4) Tax on education loan only covers the full tenure , but what if parttime courses there is no benefit . Suppose your Child passes the the college , maynot get selected in campus selection then he has to invest more money on part time and reach to industry level requirement so that coorporates can accept his certification related to degree. and there is no tax rebate on same.
HOW SAMEFUL IT IS THE INDIAN GOVERNMENT IS RULING AND MAKING MONEY.
PUBLIC SHOULD BE AWARE OF ALL THIS.
