Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies whether a father can claim a deduction under Section 80C for paying his son's life insurance premium. The consensus is yes, provided the father makes the payment. Section 80C allows deductions for premiums paid on life insurance for oneself, spouse, and children, meaning the payer is eligible for the deduction.

Yes, why not...his father can get deduction under Section. 80C by paying his son life insurance premium.

Section.80C talks about self, spouse and children
So, if son paid than son get deduct,.. if father paid than father get deduction.
