LTA - Lta Claim

Hi,
Is partial travel is applicable to claim LTA?
ie., I travel from chennai to kochi and then to maldives, and come back via the same route, maldives to kochi to chennai.
can i claim the travel from chennai to kochi and kochi to chennai under LTA?
Thanks a lot!

If you mean to say that by travelling to Maldives, your actual travel cost exceeded your permitted limits and thereby want to reduce it to permissible limits, you can do so or even show the entire expenses and claim the permitted amount only.

As far as i know, overseas travel expenses are not allowed in LTA. So, i want to know, if i can claim only the India travel cost?

There are 2 aspects in your query.
One is claim part - as suggested by Madhu
another is I.T.Exemption part - You can't claim the overseas travel exp. but domestic travel only. Tax exemption is given on LTA to promote domestic tourism.
