But owner of the property is husband and her husband made a letter of declaration that he is not claiming interest on housing loan as deduction (u/s 80c.

20 March 2015 01. I am sure, LIC means Life Insurance Corporation of India.

02. I never come across with such a BLUNDER situation in LIC that loan is given to WIFE and property is not in her name.

03. Appreciate if you could quote the instance along with names, so that the same benefit can be extended to other fellow INDIAN brothers and sisters.
