The new Section provides a deduction not exceeding Rs One lakh to an individual and an HUF, in respect of the following payments


1.Contribution to ULIP (including payment made in respect of spouse and children of the assessee and in respect of HUF, any member of the family

Etc
etc
etc

29 December 2009 but at the time of maturity of ULIP what will be the tax treatment?

29 December 2009 The units of ULIP are capital asset under Incomr tax Act,1961 and its sale before one year gives rise to short term capital gains which is taxable.
However,if the units are > one year old , the sale will raise long term capital gains . Mutual Fund will certainly deduct STT on the redemption of the units, and that makes the gains tax free u/s 10(38) of the Income tax Act, 1961.
