This amount is linked to the equity market.Premium amount Rs. 3,60,000/-. Sum Assured was Rs. 4,50,000/-. After 5 years maturity amount is Rs, 6,75,000/- .TDS deducted u/s 194DA on 6,75,000/- @ 1%. How to calculate tax? Whether Tax is to be calculated on 6,75,000 or on Rs. 3,15,000/-(6,75,000 - 3,60,000)? Please advise?

THANKS IN ADVANCE.
