REGARDING TAXABILITY OF ULIPs

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

If a Unit Linked Insurance Policy (ULIP) purchased in 2003 is surrendered in 2024 before maturity, the surrender value will be taxed as income from other sources. Crucially, the exemption under Section 10(10D) for premiums exceeding Rs. 2,50,000 is not applicable in this scenario, nor do Long Term Capital Gains provisions apply.

15 July 2025 If Unit linked insaurance policy has been purchased in the year of 2003 and the policy has been surrendered in the year 2024 before its maturity then what would be its taxability?
And if the amount of premium exceeds Rs. 2,50,000 then exemption upto Rs. 2,50,000 shall be available under section 10(10D)?
