A.Under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961, claims received against personal accident policies are not eligible for tax deduction. However, compensation awarded by Motor Accident Claims Tribunal – Interest awarded on compensation in motor accident cases cannot be considered as taxable income under the Income Tax Act, 1961- Interest on compensation awarded up to date of order of Tribunal or Court is also held to be not taxable.
