Deviations from the exact dimensions are inavoidable due to the nature
of manufacturing processes. These deviations must not be so large that
the part is useless. Designer specifies upper and lower limits to the
dimensions
Tolerance is the difference between the maximum and
minimum size limits of a part:

Allowance of the fit corresponds to maximum material condition (Cmin).
Allowance can be calculated by considering tightest fit.

Specification for the Fits
In Basic Shaft System (BSS), fund. dev. of the shaft is given by h and
it is equal to zero. (Upper limit of the shaft is on datum line).

In the second table, interference and clearence values for commonly used
fits are given.
For example, consider G7/h6, D = 20 mm.
From the table we read:
Cmax 41 m
