Hello, I'm a PCC student and have following query: If an employer(Private Ltd. Co.) pays Life Insurance premium of a specified employee, can that company claim insurance premium as its allowable expenditure??? Also, can that employee claim Insurance as a deduction u/s 80C??

It is allowable expenditure for the employer but the employee can not get the benefit u/s. 80C as the LIP is not paid/borne by the employee.

Key man insurance premium paid by the Company is allowable expesnses. Employee can not claim deduction U/s 80C for key man insurance premium.
