Term life insurance premiums paid in India are eligible for tax deductions under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, up to a maximum of ₹1.5 lakh per financial year. The death benefit received by the nominee is tax-exempt under Section 10(10D), provided the annual premium does not exceed 10% of the sum assured (for policies issued after April 1, 2012). Additionally, premiums paid for critical illness riders may qualify for deduction under Section 80D. These benefits apply under the old tax regime; consult a tax advisor for applicability under the new regime.
