07 December 2007 YES. BOTH JOINT HOLDERS CAN CLAIM BENEFIT UNDER SEC 80 C AND SEC. 24 . the total deductions THAT CAN BE CLAIMED BY EACH IS up to RS. 1.00 LAKH EACH UNDER 80 C AND UPTO Rs. 1.5 LAKHS EACH UNDER SEC 24.
IT MEANS THE TOTAL DEDUCTION PUT TOGETHER FOR BOTH COMES TO Rs. 5 LAKHS IN each FIN. YEAR.
but CONDITIONS APPLY.
1. THE PROPERTY AND LOAN SHOULD BE IN JOINT NAMES.
2. BOTH SHOULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED IN RAISING AS WELL AS REPAYING THE LOAN.
