10 April 2016 Premium of LIC policy can be paid in cash for getting benefit U/s 80C.
.
U/s 80C, an assessee can claim deduction in respect of premium paid for the policy on life of his/her child. There is no specification like married or unmarried daughter. A daughter is always a child of her parents irrespective of her marital status. Pl. refer Section 80C(4).
.
Daughter's husband can claim deduction if he pays the premium.
.
In respect of the any premium amount, only one person can claim the deduction.
