You can claim Deduction U/s 80C for repayment of Principal. You can not claim Interest till construction completes. However, you can claim such accumulated interest belonging to the pre-construction period, in 5 equal installments later from the year of completion. . You can claim both HRA and Deductions in respect of loan. .
