    1. Dear Sir,
      YES. You are eligible for Rs75,000/- deduction. You must have a medical certificate from the Govt Hospital of your jurisdiction. consult a CA for a very nominal fee and submit the return. The CA will do the needful, otherwise visit the income tax department portal and you will find the section .
      Call the IT dept and request them to give the requisite clarification in writing or the relevant section and clause. They will provide you.
