    <title>Annuity payment to LIC not exempt u/s 10(10CC) - employer didn&#039;t pay, employees did. AO didn&#039;t verify, PCIT order upheld.</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=78517</link>
    <description>The Appellate Tribunal considered a case involving revision u/s 263 of the Act related to annuity payments made to LIC. The employer did not make the annuity payment; it was made on employees&#039; request from VRS amount. The claim for exemption u/s 10(10CC) and u/s 10(10BB) was found incorrect as per PCIT&#039;s enquiry. AO allowed exemptions without verifying from the employer, leading to an erroneous order. The annuity amount paid to LIC was deemed taxable as salary per Supreme Court ruling. The AO&#039;s failure to conduct proper inquiries rendered the order prejudicial to revenue. Jurisdiction u/s 263 was upheld, dismissing the assessee&#039;s appeals.</description>
