04 September 2017 Dear Experts

My company has made Group Health Insurance policy in Star Health Insurance to Individual Employees for that company has paid the premium including our parents also and parents related premium amount has taken back from our salary after.

Kindly advise whether that parents related premium is admissible for deduction under sec 80D in Income Tax and what documents should i produce to company and income tax for that.

04 September 2017 Since you pay the employer back the insurance premium amount, you can still claim the deduction for yourself and your parents. Just ensure to keep a documentary evidence like salary slip where the amount is recovered by employer
