30 December 2011 Section 22 of the Income Tax Act is the charging section for taxing income from house property.

Section 22 does not make any distinction between residential property or commercial property.

Rental income earned from both types of property are taxable under 'Income from House Property'.

Section 24 of the Act provides deduction for interest paid on loan taken for construction of building.

Deduction is available for residential as well as commercial building.

Therefore, in the above case, interest will be allowed as deduction.
