23 June 2014 Sir,

I have a housing loan with my wife as co borrower.
We purchased the house in 2012.

Total interest paid in FY 13-14 was 2.32 Lacs.

Can both of us claim interest of 1.5 lacs under Income tax return.

The house is self occupied by my wife in Surat where as i stay in a rented accomodation in Mumbai.

Pl confirm.


Regards,

both can claim benefit of payment of interest subject to share in the property.


but mindwell, husband can not get the benefit of HRA, as it is taxable in the hands of Husband.

also husband can not claim expense of rent u/s. 80GG
