Deduction is available up to Rs. 20,000/- for senior citizens.

As you paid the insurance amt is 19214,you get the deduction of 19214 u/s 80d

u/s 80 D, a deduction of INR 20000/- is available to senior citizens. you will get a deduction of 19214/- because you have paid that much amount only.

i am assuming that you have paid this amount through cheque/DD/ credit card /online only.
