Under 80C, fees paid excluding any payment towards development fees, donation or payment of similar nature is allowed for deduction.

In case of younger daughter, you should be able to claim Rs 7700 for tuition fees and Rs 4000 for admission fees.

In case of elder daughter, admission fees of Rs 9000 should be allowed for deduction.
