1. 🏡Invest in House Property: You can claim tax deduction of up to INR 2 lakhs on home loan interest under Section 24.

5. ❗️Life Insurance: Premiums paid towards life insurance policies are eligible for deductions under Section 80C.
6. 🚘Car Loan: If you use your car for business purposes, the interest paid on the car loan is tax-deductible.
7. 🧓🏽Save for Senior Citizens: Investing in schemes like Senior Citizens Savings Scheme (SCSS) or five-year fixed deposit with a bank or post office can provide tax benefits under Section 80C.
8. 🎖️Save through ELSS: Invest in Equity Linked Saving Scheme (ELSS). It qualifies for tax exemptions under Section 80C.
9. 📚Children's Tuition Fee: Tuition fees paid for your children's education can be claimed as a deduction under Section 80C.
Remember, planning is key🔑 in reducing your tax liability. Always keep all your documents and proofs handy for claiming these deductions.
