How is Tax Charged on a Super Income Plan?

Investing in insurance is essential for everyone, especially for people who have dependent family members. All premiums paid and returns received from an investment or insurance are subject to tax according to the government's laws. When investing in any plan or policy, knowing the tax implications could help you save on taxes. Let's look at some of the taxability instances that are important to remember.

According to Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961, any premium paid towards a life insurance plan can be claimed by filing income tax. In a Super Income Plan, this would mean that the tax deductions can be claimed against the premiums paid. The cut-off for the tax-deductible is set at Rs. 1.5 lakh per annum.

Tax exemptions on the maturity benefit and bonuses can be claimed according to Section 10 (10D) of the Income Tax Act. The eligibility for this income tax deduction requires the premium you pay to be less than 20% of the sum assured.

There are conditions under which Section 10 (10D) does not apply to maturity benefits. If the premium paid towards the policy is more than 10% of the sum assured, no tax benefits will be applicable. This fact is essential to remember when deciding the amount and tenure an investor needs to set before starting the insurance policy.
