22 December 2013 Why interest on loan taken for construction of house Property is allowed as deduction on accrual basis and not payment basis since chance of assessee defaulting on payment of interest is also there?If he defaults in payment of interest then also he will get deduction for the same u/s 24? Isn't it illogical?
