Under the current income tax act, 1961 the interest on proceeds of the life insurance policy are exempted.. So the amount of tds on interest amount can be claimed as refund..

I understand that Interest received would be taxable while amount of sum assured received on account of LIC Policy shall be exmpt.{section 10(D) of IT ACT} Interest amount can be extracted from TDS certificate issued by LIC as TDS should have been deducted on Interest portion only.
