06 June 2009 as per basic income tax rule Specific provision always overrule General provision.

Since 80CCC specifically deals with the insurance Annuity plan, it will be exempted u/s 80CCC. However it is speifically mention that no deduction will be allowed u/s 80C if deduction is respect is allowed u/s 80 CCC.

so answer is 80CCC
