But the section specifically says that if the person has claimed deduction ,then the proceeds are chargeable to tax.The proceeds are exempt if and only if it is invested in purchasing the annuity.I want to know what will be the consequences when deduction is not claimed by the person.

Proceeds receiced on maturity shall be taxable because this is based on EXEMP EXEMPT TAXABLE (EET) Mechanism.

Shall be taxable and if you are not declared in return then you have to prove before Assessing officer that you have not claimed contribution as deduction u/s 80c.

But section specifically says that it would be taxable on maturity only when deduction is claimed under section 80 CCD.So if deduction is not claimed how will it be taxable? If you still say that it will be taxable please tell me the section which implies that if deduction not claimed then also the proceeds are taxable.
