Dear sir, Assume if sec 80U & 80DDB is not applicable to policy holer. Actaully he had taken two policy one in 2006 and another is in 2011 however the policy which was taken in 2006 the annual preminum of the policy was exeed 20% of its maturity amount and policy which was taken in 2011 the annual premium of this said policy was less then 20% of its maturity amount. In this scenario pls clarify weather maturity amount of first policy which was taken in 2006 will be fully taxable and maturity amount of second policy pertain to 2011 will be fully exempt,

It is written in your policy (in simple terms it is assurance amount provided by LIC for any Life incident happens.) Otherwise first you contact your agent and find the sum assured amount and than check the % of premium. Thanks.

Yes. First policy's annual premium is Exceed 20% of its sum assured but Second policy's annual premium is Less then 20% of its sum assured Amount in this scenario weather First policy's maturity amount will be fully taxable and second policy's maturity amount will be fully exempt

In case the premium payable in any year exceeds the prescribed percentage i.e. 10%, 15% or 20% of actual sum assured, as described in the preceding paragraphs, then the whole proceeds from the policy would get taxed in the year of receipt. However, in case of death of the insured, where his nominees receive the policy proceeds the same shall be tax free in the hands of the nominee(s) even if premium paid in any year crossed the prescribed percentage of sum assured. Means your First policy maturity amount would be Taxable and Second Policy amount would be Exempt U/s 10(10D) Thanks.
