DOES MATURITY AMOUNT RECEIVED ON LIFE INSURANCE IS TAXABLE OR NOT??
HERE IN THIS BLOG WE ONLY DISCUSS ABOUT LIFE INSURANCE:
1. We all know that the
premium paid on life Insurance is
allowed as deduction under section 80C of Income tax act, 1961
but
there is always confusion about maturity amount received from that life insurance
2. In simple words,
taxability of maturity amount
depends only upon the
Percentage of premium paid to the total sum assured,
3. If Premium Paid <(less than) 10% of Sum assured--->ANY AMOUNT RECEIVED ON LIFE INSURANCE IS EXEMPT UNDER SECTION 10(10D) of Income Tax Act, 1961
4. If Premium Paid is more than 10% then any amount received on maturity is FULLY TAXABLE.
under head "INCOME FROM OTHER SOURCE".
5. TDS POINT: If amount received > Rs. 1,00,000 the TDS @ 2% is deductable.
and we can take credit of such TDS in our Income Tax Return.
