19 February 2013 hi,
1.if the employee is staying in rented house and paying rent for that he can claim HRA.
2.If employee has taken loan and paying interest he can claim interest u/s.24(b) subject to property should be self occupied/construction should be completed.

If he's not taken possession/nor the property is still under construction then he can't avail the interest benefit.
