in this case private employee being assesee has only obtained loan but not paid by him so he is not eleigible as it was paud by his mom.

further mom is not eligible in this case.

22 December 2014 Transaction Within mother and son there is inter loan entry, which can be repaid in future date or can be treated as gift given by relative within section 56(2)(vii).
Both these two transactions have no implecations under income tax act

Therefore, loan Repayment made by Mother can be claimed as deduction under section 24(b) of Income Tax Act, 1961 by Son.

Further, same treatment is also valid in case payment by Wife on account of Husband or vise-versa.

I would like to be counter my opinion by other experts on panel.
