The circular clarifies the treatment of input tax credit in relation to life insurance premiums not included in taxable value. The circular explains that such premiums are not to be considered as pertaining to a non-taxable or exempt supply under the CGST Act. As per the Insurance Act, life insurance policies may include an investment component, but the portion of premium not included in taxable value does not qualify as exempt supply. Therefore, there is no requirement to reverse input tax credit for such premiums as per Rule 42 of the CGST Rules. The circular aims to ensure uniformity in the implementation of tax provisions across field formations.
