Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a life insurance premium paid in June 2020, relating to the financial year 2020-21, can be claimed as a deduction for the financial year 2019-20. The consensus is that it cannot. The deadline for making investments and payments for income tax deductions for FY 2019-20 was July 31, 2020. Since the premium was for FY 2020-21, it is not eligible for deduction in the previous financial year.

If it relates to FY 20-21, you cannot claim it as deduction in 19-20

The deadline for making various investment/payment for claiming income tax deduction for FY 2019-20 under Section 80C (LIC, PPF, NSC etc.), 80D (Mediclaim), 80G (Donations) is July 31, 2020.

How will affect the lic premium deduction

The deadline for investment is for FY 19-20 and you have paid premium for FY 20-21.
