Top ways to save tax
Rent you pay. If you are living at home with parents, pay rent to Ur parents. It's perfectly legal, just need a proper legal rent agreement with them
Education loan
Home loan- If it's a self occupied prop, ie u stay in the property u took on loan, u get a rebate of 2 lakhs per year (on interest component) plus 1.5 lakhs (under principal) under 80C. If it's rented out, there is no limit on the interest component
LTA (if Ur company has it)
Expenses on books, driver, telephone (check if it company allows this)
NPS (upto 50k)

You can save taxes under various section.
First is 80c, under which you can save upto 1.5L from your taxable income. This include EPF, ELSS and other.
Then comes the HRA part, where you can show rents to claim the HRA.
Then there is 80d, where you can save 25-75k by showing medical insurance and bills.

These are major tax saving instruments. There are others as well, like LTA, and other in case your company provides that.
