Sumeet (Expert)
07 February 2018 A claim received under accidental insurance policy will not be treated as an income. It is an expense that you have already incurred. Since insurance is a contract of indemnity and usually there is no profit element in the amount of claim received by the insured, the claim received will not be considered as taxable income.
