The pension received from LIC is taxable under Income from Other sources.

This being a family pension, deduction of Rs.15000 per annum or 33 1/3 % which is lower is

eligible as standard deduction

I suppose this question is raised due to the question given in PCC taxation paper.

As per LIC India website. Any amount paid to Jeevan Suraksha Scheme is fully exempt u/s 80CCC

Hence pension received on it is taxable.

In case if the pension is commuted then it is exempted u/s 10(10A)

So I think it is taxable

Dear Praveen the pension is exempted under section 10(10A) when the relation of payer and payee is employer and employee. This is not for other pensions.
