Whether Single Premium is eligible for deduction U/s 80C? If an assessee is taking LIC Policy and paid premium of Rs 80,000 so now for Ay can he take benefit of 80,000 ?
In case single-premium policy has been bought after April 2012 and sum assured on death is less than 10 times the annual/single premium paid, then there won't be any deduction available u/s 80C.

Deduction is available amounting to Rs. 1,00,000/-.The benefit for life insurance premium u/s 80 C is restricted to 20% of the actual capital sum assured. Surrender of Plan before premium has been paid for two years will result in reversal tax benefit.
