Deduction U/s 80C

This query is : Resolved 

16 December 2010 Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to know that whether the deduction u/s 80C of the Income Tax Act in respect of Life Insurance Premium is allowable inclusive of Service Tax OR exclusive of Service Tax ?
For example, say, Mr. X pays the premium of Rs. 10,000 and L.I.C. charges 10.3% Service Tax on Rs. 10,000 i.e., Rs. 1030. Thus, Mr. X pays Rs. (10,000 + 1,030) = Rs. 11,030 in total. Now, the question is whether Mr. X will get the deduction of Rs. 10,000 only OR full deduction of Rs. 11,030 which includes Service Tax, u/s 80C of the Income Tax Act ?

Please help.

Thank you!

Regards,

Vinay Kumar Gupta.
