1. You cannot claim interest rebate if the house is in your wife name

2.Since there is no income no tax,no refund

3.if the property co -ownership and loan also joint loan both the owners can claim interst rebate

11 August 2010 Mr. X is employed in a PSU. His wife is not employed. A property has been purchased by Mr. X in the name of him self and his wife as joint property holders, and the loan taken for purchasing the property is in the name of Mr. X and Mrs. X is co-applicant for the laon taken.

in the above case if Mrs.X is received rent in her name by way of cheque or e-banking, for the joint property is exempted from Income from House property?

if Mr. X is claiming the Interest accrued on the borrowed loan only without considering the rent received by Mrs. X, in his I.T. Return, is it valid?

reply is requested please.
