01 March 2008 Q1) kindly explain the consent of Employer- Employee Insurance and also highlight the relevant sections of Income Tax Act 1961 applicable for:-

a) Tax Exemptions in Employer- Employee Policy.
b) Fringe benefit Tax is applied?
c) Assignment
d) Maturity/ Death proceeds after assignment

Q2). If assignment of Employer Employee Policy is done to the employee just before the end of 3 years how will that be possible as the surrender value for the first three years is nil as per the policy term but employee purchase the policy on Guaranteed Surrender value.

The employer –employee policy shall have surrender value of the first three years premium have been duly paid. So can one assign the policy just before the premium payment of 4th quarter of third year? How will the whole arrangement work out, especially in the terms of surrender value, please explain?

Q3. If the assignment is made for a surrender value, would the Surrender Value is taxable? And in whose hand, the Empolyer or the individual.

Q4. After the Employer- Employee policy has been duly assigned, what shall be the scenario now:-

A) Who would receive the death claims, if accurse and would be same tax free?
B) Would the maturity proceeds do the Employee who has been assigned this policy and would the same be tax free in his hand?

Please reply as soon as possible
