24 March 2008 no you cant take the benefit of interest in your return, Neither your brother can do so. Because the loan is taken in the name of your father and he is the only personal who is eligible for this.

24 March 2008 NEITHER YOU NOR YOUR BROTHER IS ELIGIBLE FOR DEDUCTION ON ACCOUNMT OF HOUSING LOAN . YOU ARE NOT THE OWNER OF THE HOUSE AND BEING THE PROPERTY IS IN NAME OF FATHER HE SHALL BE ELIGIBLE IF HE CLAIMS AND FILE RETURN

24 March 2008 THE OWNER OF THE HOUSE PROPERTY IS IN NAME OF FATHER SO HE SHALL BE ELIGIBLE TO CLAIM, IF HE IS FILLING HIS RETURN .

28 March 2008 No. it cant be claimed by the son.
Incase the loan is taken in joint name n son is repaying the whole loan then claiming interest is possible.
