You may claim the pre-EMI paid only after the repayment starts. The Pre-EMi can be clubbed with interest paid for the FY in 5 equal parts. If total PEMI paid is 100000, you may add 20000 to every FY starting with the FY where the repayment has started on Principal.
As of now, you are not eligible for any tax rebate on Pre-EMI.
