This discussion clarifies the tax treatment of annuities received from LIC's Jeevan Suraksha pension plan. The consensus is that the monthly pension received is taxable under the 'income from other sources' head, rather than being eligible for the standard deduction applicable to salary income.
Can anyone advise if LIC jeevan suraksha pension plan under which monthly pension till death is given. I understand that it is taxable (pls correct if it is nontaxable) but can it be shown under salary where standard deduction is applicable or under income from other sources. Thanks
