Section 24(b) provides in case of joint loan then each joint holder of loan has exemption of interest on housing loan for self occupied property is upto Rs.150000. So in your case you and your wife are joint holders of the loan so both can claim upto Rs.150000 exemption u/s24(b) individually. As well as such section indicates in case of the joint loan the total interest on the housing loan shall be distributed amount the joint holders at the equal proportion. Thus in your case only two joint holders so each have 50% of interest eligible to claim exemption. So in your case total interest is Rs.236000 thus 50% of such is Rs.118000 for you and Rs.118000 for your wife. As well as under section 80C repayment of principle portion of housing loan also shall be calculated on the equal proportion basis.
So the section 24(b) prescribes the maximum limit for self occupied property is for individual assess but not for a loan.
