CA Madhvi (Expert)
05 June 2014 generally life insurance premium is debited to capital account as its personal nature,U can also show as an Investments.

05 June 2014 the paid up value may be shown as investment in the books of proprietor. (The conservative approach suggests that you show the investment at surrender value rather than paid up value)
80C shall not have any effect in books of accounts. It is for the income tax computation purpose only.

06 June 2014 You can either show it in investments or show it as drawings. Accounting method wont matter for deduction u/s 80C.
