Interest can be claim only after possession. After possession it can be said that the property is self occupied.
Earlier interest paid can be claim as per the provision of sec 24(b) as Pre EMI interest. This interest is allowed to claim in 5 years. eg.
Say Pre EMI interest for the year 08-09 is Rs. 100000. Then it can be claim in 5 years starting from 2008-09 to 2012-13 as i/5 of Rs. 100000 i.e Rs. 20,000 in each year along with regular interest after possession.
