I don think we can take credit on the premium paid.The premium paid cannot be directly related to renting.

As per Rule 2(1) of Cenvat Credit Rules, Which defines " Input Service" has exclusion clause as follows -

outdoor catering, beauty treatment, health services, cosmetic and plastic surgery, membership of a club , health and fitness centre, life Insurance , Health Insurance.

so cenvat credit can not be allowed on LIC.
