Mr. A is a salaried employee and his wife Mrs. A is also salaried. Mr. A is paying LIC premium for his wife and is claiming tax benefit under 80 C which says - "Any amount that you pay towards life insurance premium for yourself, your spouse or your children can be included in Section 80C deduction".
Since the policy is in Mrs. A's name, Can Mrs. A also claim tax benefit for the same policy? Is it a violation?
If yes, then under which section of the Income Tax Act? (or any other complementary provisions of the IT Act)
