It amounts to moveable property.  Amendment yet to be seen.

What in case of shop/farrms owned by husband?Does they come into the category of property?

@Ranee......

Madam, if the shops/farms are made by the husband during the course of marriage, then wife have a right of share in that property. But if the same were owned from pre-marriage date, then that property will not be taken into consideration while granting wife a share.

"........It amounts to moveable property.  Amendment yet to be seen......"

 

The LIC premium is only 5% of the sum insured , and thus it is a purely an "insurance" policy and I claim tax rebate under Sec80C, unlike the "investment" policies in which the premium is 20% or more of the sum insured & do not get tax rebate.

My question is, can a purely insurance policy be regarded as a movable property ? If yes, then which amount will be taken as asset ---  the Insured amount , OR  the assured return,  OR  based on yearly premium  ??

I will be thankful if anyone can help me out.

It is felt that assured return.

However the assured return is subjected to the condition of keeping the policy in force by adhering to conditions expressed in policy document e.g. regular payment of periodic premiums.

In case of loan application on LI policy the lending institution may take into a/c the paid up value/surrender value as on date.

Maximum loan amount available under the policy is 90% of the Surrender Value of the policy (85% in case of paid up policies) including cash value of bonus.

The change in occupation, location etc, health is to be informed to the insurer and accordingly policy condition may change.

Yes, it would come under property.
