Dear Sir

I have one house and have only rented property income. I am not staying in that house.

I am paying emi for the loan taken for construction of that house.

My question is whether i can claim benefit of 80 c while payment of emi as its principal part. Please remember my house was given on rent as it was constructed

Thanks in advance
