Any sum received under LIC policy including maturity bonus etc is non-taxable.

From AY 2004-2005 premiums paid in excess of 20% of the Sum Assured will not be eligible for Tax free returns under section 10(10D) except in the case of death.

All the benefits payable under a Life Insurance policy are tax free.

However in cases the premium paid in excess of 20% of the capital sum assured within a year, benefits paid excess of premiums will be taxable.
