I am a female employee working in a company. I want to show medical bills for income tax. I believe the limit is up to Rs 15,000 per annum. Can I show medical bills of my father-in-law and mother-in-law as well?

I believe they are the dependents of your husband, which implies they are dependents on you too. You can show the bills for tax exemption. Pon

Dear friends, The Income Tax exemption for treatment up to Rs. 15000 is not on medical bills, but on medical reimbursement. Abbas.P.S
