21 October 2013 Hi

In short:

Pre-Contruction interest is deductible in 5 installments from the FY in which construction is completed.

If house is let out than there is no limit on claiming deduction for Interest (including 1/5th portion of pre-construction Int. & Interest on loan taken for repairs)

But if property is self occupied than maximum deduction allowed is max Rs. 1.5 lacs.

Max amount for Int . on loan for repairs is Rs. 30,000/-

Thanks//VaibhavJ

21 October 2013 Answer in case would be:

Current Interest Rs. 1Lac + 1/5 of Pre Construction interest Rs. 1 lac (5 Lac/5) or Rs. 0.80 lac + Rs. 30K.

Thanks
