CIO of Future Generali Life Speaks On Tax Exemption Limits for Insurance
Dr. Nirakar Pradhan, the CIO of Future Generali Life Insurance Co. suggests better tax breaks on life insurance policies to promote insurance and savings in the country. Not unlike many other industry leaders, Dr. Pradhan feels an increase in the current exemption sub-limit for premiums paid towards life insurance policies will help in making insurance an attractive savings channel in the country. This would help enhance national savings which could be used to finance various projects for economic benefit. It would also encourage consumption as higher tax exemptions translates to greater personal disposable incomes. As with other industry leaders, he is of the opinion that a separate tax slab should be created for those investing in insurance. He also expressed his thoughts on other aspects such as investment, capital, infrastructure and inflation and how the budget should address all these areas in such a way that economic growth is stimulated over the next fiscal year i.e. 2015 - 2016.
