Dear Sanjay

Theoretically it is possible but require lot of explanation because have common receipt .

My advise is given below :

  1. Pay premium through two cheques for example premium is rs 50000 then pay two cheques of rs 25000 each from husband and wife account .
  2. As you shall give two cheques hence can get receipt with mention of both cheques .
  3. Moreover , your bank statement would have debit to insurance .


You can always claim tax rebate under section 80 D by showing bank debit and common receipt .
