Working in MNC, can I became an LIC agent

[mukesh]

Hi all,

I'm working for an MNC in Delhi, is it ok if I became an LIC agent or will there be any legal problems in it (for my current work) and is it the amount earned by me as agency commission will be taxed and do I need to show it in the IT returns.

Thanks,
Mukesh
