Quick Summary
When a Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) policy matures prematurely, only the profit amount received is subject to income tax. If the premium paid exceeds 10% (or 20% in some cases) of the sum assured, the entire maturity amount received will be taxed under the 'income from other sources' head.

Amount received on maturity
Profit amount is only taxable.
@ nidhi....is there any logic behind it?
No exemption from income tax on the maturity of policies
Taxation, where the premium paid, is more than 10% of the sum assured – Any money received from a life insurance policy, where the premium is more than 10% or 20% of the sum assured as the case may be, is fully taxable.

So whole amount received on maturity is taxable under other sources
