Re: service tax

This query is : Resolved 

05 November 2016 Sir,
When I am filing my income tax in 80D can i claim the full amount paid as premium 1.e final premium + service tax or only the final premium paid.

05 November 2016 amount paid towards the premium includes service tax as well.

20 July 2025 You can claim deduction only on the actual premium amount paid excluding service tax.

Service tax (or GST now) is not eligible for deduction under Section 80D. The deduction is allowed on the premium amount paid towards the health insurance policy, not on the taxes paid on that premium.

So, while filing your Income Tax return under 80D, claim only the base premium paid, excluding service tax.
