Hi All,
Today while checking the tax section in my company website, I see that the Provident Fund deducted from Salary is considered in 80C deduction.
I was in the assumption that 80C 1.5L is seperate and PF deductions are seperate while claiming deductions in ITR.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

PF deduction in salary slip comes under 80C - 1.5L deduction only, say you have PF deduction as 3k per month then it will 36k - 1.5L = 114k balance left for 80C deduction..

Employer contribution is not added to 80C. Only your contribution will be added to 80C.
