I would like to know if I pay the LIC premium of my parents' LIC policies from my account will it be considered to be exempt from tax under section 80C .

Deduction under 80C is available if the premium is paid for self,spouse or children.In case of an HUF deduction is available if premium is paid for any member of the family.So,in case of an individual,preium paid for parents will not qualify for deduction.
