Deduction under Section 80TTA applicable to NRI account

A person employed in India moved out of India. His/her savings account is running. The amounts in the savings account are all earned in India. Is he/she entitled to claim 80 TTA deduction from savings account interest.

Hey @Ashok_Kumar

Yes, an NRI can also claim the deduction under Section 80TTA, but this benefit is available only under the old tax regime.

Hope this helps!
