Hi,

We surrendered a ULIP last year. The initial premium was paid in 2005 and it was for 3 year term. The Sum assured is less than 5 times the annual premium.

The issuing company deducted tax at 1% of total withdrawal amount. What should be the taxable amount for this - the complete withdrawal or only the gains?

Regards

Abhishek
