To give more impetus to general public, insurance is not taxable both to both at entry and exit point. In India, paying insurance premia is considered u/s. 80C, while maturity payment is totally tax free u/s. 10,10(D) of Indian Income Tax Act. These exemption from paying taxes makes insurance more attractive than bank or post office, private savings instruments.
