Tax exemptions for state insurance maturity receipts, such as those from Rajasthan government insurance schemes, are generally similar to many other key retirement benefits for government employees, but there are important differences in the exemption sections and their limits:
State Insurance: Maturity Fully exempt (if qualifying) Section 10(10D) Policy must be life insurance and premium conditions apply (e.g., annual premium not exceeding 10% of sum assured for post-2012 policies; otherwise, maturity is taxable).
Gratuity: Fully exempt Section 10(10)(i), (ii) Central/state government employees: fully exempt. Provident Fund (GPF/EPF): Fully exempt Section 10(11) for GPF, 10(12) for EPF Government employees’ provident fund receipts are fully exempt, subject to service/recognition criteria.
