Can we increase the In hand salary by declaring the Investments?

Every month a certain amount of Income Tax is deducted. I want to increase my In-hand salary, so if I declare all the investments that are eligible for deductions will it increase my monthly salary?

2nd Query- I have a business, so if I declare income from that in the Other income category will this help to increase the in-hand salary?

If you are getting salary from employer and opted for old tax regime, you can submit declaration to employer.

He will consider investment for tax calculation and your in hand salary will increase due to less tax liability.

2nd part of query is not clear to me.
