Question by Dinesh on Sep 06, 2022Hindi

Money

I bought an insurance policy with single premium of Rs 97048 and tenure of 9 years. The sum assured was Rs 130,000. Gross maturity proceeds were Rs 11,1348. There were two survival benefits of Rs 19,500 each at 3 year intervals.

In my layman’s understanding, my income from this policy is Rs 11,1348 minus single premium of Rs 9,7048, that is, Rs 14,300. But LIC is deducting TDS by adding the two survival benefits to this, that is, Rs 14,300 plus Rs 19,500 plus Rs 19,500 amounting to Rs 53,300. My question is, should I report Rs 14,300 or Rs 53,300 as my income from this policy while filling my ITR. AIS shows Rs 53,300.

Ans: Money received against insurance policy (which covers life) is fully taxable, wherein the premium is more than 10% (in case policy issued after 1st April 2012 or 20% (any other case) of the sum assured.

As premium paid by you is more than specified limit of sum insured, provisions related to exemption of amount received and deduction of premium paid is not available.

Accordingly, you have to pay tax on entire income i.e. survival benefit and amount received above amount paid by you i.e. Rs 53,300.

Money

Dear Sir, The net maturity proceeds of single premium life insurance policies are now taxable. The question is whether survival benefits paid at intervals during the tenure of the policy are to be included in the “Net Maturity Proceeds” for the purpose of calculating income from a single premium life insurance policy. I bought an insurance policy with single premium of Rs.97048 and tenure of 9 years. The sum assured was Rs. 130000 Gross maturity proceeds were Rs. 111348 There were two survival benefits of Rs. 19500 each at 3 year intervals. In my layman’s understanding, my income from this policy is Rs 111348 minus single premium of Rs. 97048 i. e. 14300. But LIC is deducting TDS by adding the two survival benefits to this i. e. Rs. 14300 plus 19500 plus 19500 amounting to Rs. 53300. My question is, should I report Rs. 14300 or Rs. 53300 as my income from this policy while filling my ITR. AIS shows Rs. 53300.

Ans: You need to consider the total payments (Rs 53,300) including the survival benefits as this is also income to you. Hence, what the insurance company has deducted is correct and is in line with the AIS as well.

Question by Dinesh - Feb 04, 2022Hindi

Money

I am LIC policy holder of single premium plan (sum assured: Rs 5 lakhs; policy term: 9 years) under which single premium of Rs 3.30 lakh was paid in Nov 2011. Thereafter, survival benefit of Rs 75,000 each was received in 2014 and 2017. The policy matured in Nov 2020 with receipt of net maturity proceeds of Rs 3.77 lakhs. As per my form 26 AS for FY2021 (AY 2022) amount of Rs 2.05 lakhs is shown to be received from LIC against which TDS of Rs 7,688 is booked. (2.05 L = 75k + 75k + 3.77L + 7688- 3.3 L). While filing ITR for FY2021 (AY2022), please let me know if I can show income of Rs 55,000 (net of premium) against LIC maturity proceeds despite form 26AS showing income of Rs 2.05 lakhs?

Ans: Under Section 10 10(D), the entire maturity proceeds will be taxable in the year of receipt and must be shown as income while filing one's income tax return.

I have running ULIP Insurance policy bought in 2008. Premium 4 Lks. Assured sum 52 Lks and is still active. I shall very grateful to you if could clarify my below queries in "IT terms" 1. a. What is the tax implication, if a partial withdrawal if done now ? b. If no TDS is deducted, will the withdrawal amount be treated as an earning, or the purpose of tax filing? 2. a. As the ULIP policy was done in 2008, What will be the tax implication, in case of, surrender of the policy now? b. If no TDS is deducted on the surrender amount, will the surrender value be treated as an earning, for the purpose of tax filing.

Ans: Partial Withdrawal Tax Implications
Partial Withdrawal - Tax Implication Now:

Since your ULIP was bought before 2010, the partial withdrawal is tax-free if the premium does not exceed 10% of the sum assured (Rs 5.2 lakhs in your case).
No TDS Deducted - Treatment for Tax Filing:

If no TDS is deducted, the withdrawal is still tax-free and does not need to be treated as taxable income.
Surrender Tax Implications
Surrender of Policy - Tax Implication Now:

If you surrender the ULIP, the maturity proceeds are tax-free, as your policy was purchased in 2008, provided the premium does not exceed 10% of the sum assured.
No TDS Deducted on Surrender - Treatment for Tax Filing:

If no TDS is deducted, the surrender value is still tax-free and does not need to be reported as taxable income.

Question by Padmanabhan - Aug 10, 2024Hindi

Money

As for net maturity proceeds where TDS deducted by LIC with regard to single premium policy, do we've to show the entire net amount as other income in the same year? For the bonus accrued over the policy tenure, any option available for tax benefit?

Ans: 01. You have to show full details of the policy, i.e., Sale/Maturity amount received, its Cost (Premiums paid) & Net Gain.
02. You are supposed to pay your tax, if any & also claim credit for TDS deducted.
03. I suppose, Bonus received by you during the policy period, would have been declared in your ITRs of previous years.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.

Hi Sir, My Son is studying in 11th std with PCMCs and preparing both for NATA and CET. He was an average student in tenth scoring 55%, we are hoping for better performance in his 12th board. Currently we are staying in Bangalore. We need your suggestion in choosing between BArch or BE (Civil/Mech/Electrical). Which one will be better for him in difficulty level, fee structure, future job prospects and if he wants to Masters, whether he can continue in India or abroad. If abroad which countries or university are good for him for masters. Thank you

Ans: In B.Arch difficulty level is less but he must be good in drawing. A candidate who is bad in drawing can't be an Architect, even if he becomes he will fail in professional life. BE (Civil/Mech/Electrical) needs good knowledge of Maths and Physics. From his 10th score it seems to be he is an below average student. Fee structure is mostly same in both. For Masters we can think afterwards, no question of long term planning. In abroad always USA is the best for Engineering. Best of luck. Regards.

Im afarid to express my love to a women. She is very good looking and much more than that she had a good character. But the main problem arises is she is 171cm and I'm 165cm. I'm afraid may be I will get rejected. I love her so much. Should i I leave her and move on. And one thing also i don't even talk to her, I'm afraid to talk. Can you give some tips to talking also

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand your concern but how will you know whether height is an issue for her until you go ahead and speak to her? If you are worried about confessing your feelings for her directly, it's best you take things slow. Anyways, people are more likely to take such confessions on a positive note if they know the person.

You can start with a Hi, followed by letting her know that you have seen her around quite a few times. You can ask her what she does, and other general questions. Don't do it all in a single day; try building rapport slowly. This way you won't be putting too much pressure on yourself or on her.

Best Wishes.
