04 February 2015 Deduction u/s 80D is available if the premium is paid (by any mode) by the assessee from his income chargeable to tax. In your case, company is paying premium and deducting it from employee's salary. Hence this deduction is available to the employee. Had the company not recovered premium amount from employee's salary, then deduction u/s 80D was not available.
