29 February 2012 I am to pay premium annually against my LIC's Plan-Jeevan Anurag (Table 168). Can I claim deduction under Section 80C every year on my annual premiums against the aforesaid plan till its maturity?

29 February 2012 You mean if SA is 2,50,000/- and annual premium is 20,000/- then 20% of 2,50,000/-=50,000/- which is more than the premium paid. Hence, 20,000/- being less will be allowed as deduction under 80C. Am I right Sir?
