If I & my wife (both working) stand as co-applicants only (not owners of the house) to a housing loan to be taken by my Brother-in-law & my sister (again both working), then can me & my wife claim Tax benefits for Interest & Principal amounts paid by we two towards the above loan? if yes, then are there any criteria?

Hi,
In my opinion you can not claim the tax benefit u/s. 24 or under sec. 80C. As you are only the co-applicant and the house property is neither purchased by you nor you can claim any rights in the aforesaid property , therefore in my view you can not claim the tax benefits.

I agree with Mr.Sharma.
You and your wife can claim deduction only if you are co-owners of the property against which loan is taken.

Not only the assessees should be co-owners, their respective shares in the property should also be definite and ascertainable to claim deduction u/s 24(b). This can generally be proved if the share is mentioned in the sale deed / agreement.
