In case of individual, policy should be taken on his own life, life of spouse or any child(dependen/ independent/marr./unmarrd) to claim deduction U/s 80C.
as in ur case u are avail to the deduction for payment of LIC of ur spouse.
however the deduction will be subject to 20% of sum assured

Dear Ankur,
Deduction will be available to the person who has paid the amount of premium. So in this case also u are eligible to get the deduction..........
In case of any query U just have to satisfy the AO that payment has been made from ur Bank Account/funds, by producing Bank Statements, having zerox copy of cheque, etc

Thanks a lot for the clarification... but i was told tht only a life insured or proposer of the policy can take tax benefit... irrespective of the person paying the premium... otherwise i paying premium for my working daughter wud b claimed by me though the policy is in her name n she herself being proposer for it.

Even no need to prove the sources of payment. The only condition is if you claim deduction then your wife should not claim deduction.
There is no need to that it should be paid through your bank account.
