The answer to your query will be NO.
Section 80 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 expressly provides that in computing the income of an individual or a HUF, the sum paid as insurance premia, etc shall be deductable from the aggregate income.
Therefore, as a Company, the said benefit u/s 80C of the Income Tax Act shall not be available.
