IT Relief on Insurance premium paid in the name of wards

i think you can claim deduction as law doesnot say anything about the son of assessee being a major nor about him being resident or not. so if the payment is made by you, then you can claim deduction.

Krishnamoorthy Sir,

To claim 80C, the "child" need not be dependent on u... (Child need not be minor)

nor is there any requirement regarding residential status..

So u can claim 80C in your name if u paid his premium, subject to the conditions in 80C

YES U CAN CLAIM DEDUCTION U/S 80 C

You can claim deduction under section 80 C.

Yes, You can claim deduction for the same u/s 80C

OM SAI SRI SAI JAI JAI SAI

Deudction u/s 80C can be claimed

Dear Mr. Krishnamoorthy,

There has always been misunderstanding in the mind of us toward claiming the deduction under section 80c for investment made on behalf of the family members.  In this article, we will talk about all circumstances, where an individual can get the benefit of deduction u/s 80C for payment on behalf of his/her family members. Every person should plan his investments and plan his taxes. Section 80C of Income tax is one of the part for tax planning. This article seeks to explain the various common questions arise in the mind of a layman like -

• Can I get the deduction u/s 80C for payment on behalf of my wife ?
• Whether making payment of LIC premium to policy of major child will be eligible for claim under section 80C ?
• Whether payment of LIC premium of my independent and major child will be eligible for deduction u/s 80C ?

An individual can avail the benefit of deduction under section 80C for payment of investments on behalf of his/her family members (Individual/Spouse/Children) up to Rs. 1,00,000.

Child may be :-

• Dependent/independent,
• Male/female,
• Minor/major,
• Married/unmarried

So, sir you can go for the same best of luck.

Thanks & Regards

Rajat
