The highest amount that may be claimed as a medical allowance deduction is Rs.15,000 per year. As a result, if you have incurred medical charges of, say, Rs.38,000 over the course of a financial year, you must submit your medical invoices and receive a tax advantage of Rs.15,000. Your tax deduction is restricted to Rs.15,000 regardless of how much you spend on medical treatments. However, Arun Jaitley, India's Finance Minister, proposed in Budget 2018 that a standard deduction of Rs.40,000 be given for both medical reimbursement and transportation allowance, with both being combined.
