In a bid to promote health insurance among the citizens, the government has set a mechanism in the budget of the upcoming FY under which an individual can deduct Rs 20,000 or total annual premium payable whichever is less from taxable income.

In one hand, the mechanism will expand the much-needed boost to the insurance sector which is less than 10 percent right now. On the other hand, it will provide concession in income tax apart from benefits of health insurance coverage to the taxpayers.
