Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether the Goods and Services Tax (GST) paid on life insurance premiums can be claimed as a deduction under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. The consensus is that the full premium paid, including GST, is eligible for deduction. If an employer does not account for the GST amount, individuals can claim the deduction by filing their Income Tax Return (ITR).

1. Yes... You can claim deduction for the LIC paid amount u/s 80C with GST amount...

2. If employer can't considering then You will claim through filing of ITR.
You cannot claim itc as it is restricted vide section 17(5) of cgst act 17
