Interest deduction on home loan

This query is : Resolved 

26 August 2013 One of my friend is living in a company provided flat and hence not receiving HRA. Now he is buying a flat in his name in the same city in which he is presently situated. Can he claim deduction in income tax for interest paid on home loan taken ? Here it must be noted that even after buying the flat he will continue living in company's accomodation. In my opinion there is no problem in claiming the deduction. I just want to be sure if i'm correct or not.
Pls help.

26 August 2013 Yes, you can claim interest on housing loan deduction u/s24(b) but if you earning any income from such house(i.e let out) then you also have to offer rental income for tax purpose.

26 August 2013 Thanks sir.
No he is not earning any rental income on it, i.e the flat is kept unoccupied where he go n stay during weekends.

26 August 2013 I.e he also using it for his self use only. I.e not given for rent. So shall be consider it as self occupied property and claim deduction u/s 24(b) upto Maximum of Rs.1,50,000/-
