Yes you have to include this in your income as all money back policy are taxable as per the provisions contained therein as it is immaterial whether your have shown it as your deductions in your prior returns

As per section 10(10D) if the premium is equal to or less than 10% of the sum assured the same is not taxable on maturity. This clause is never told/known by any of the LIC agents in case of Single premium plan as all Single premium plan violates this condition and hence the maturity amount stands taxable.
Single premium plans are Horrible in the following ways: a. gives less return than FD b. Very fewer insurance benefits c. Taxable in a way FD Does
