Home Loan Interest
This query is : Resolved
20 October 2009
Hi,
Me and my wife we both in private job.
We have taken a home loan from and booked a flat which is under construction. Flat has been booked in both's name. We are paying full EMI while the loan disbursement is construction linked. We are stayin in rental house.
I am paying EMI on monthly basis and taking 50% amount from my wife's account on half yearly basis.
Can we both claim deduction of PRINCIPAL REPAYMENT? If yes, should we have to give any type of declaration or documentation?
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Anurag

Dear Anurag,
Both of you can claim deduction of Principal repayment (i.e. 50 % of total principal amount repaid)
Provided both of you are borrower of the said loan as well as owner of the property.

Thanks for Chetan's valuable contribution.
Just want to add Interest can't be claimed before completion of construction,although it seems you already know this :-)
