Maintenance charges


This query is : Resolved 

29 December 2009

I live in a flat owned by me in a Housing Complex. I pay certain amount annually to our Housing Society as maintenance charges, which includes maintenance outside my flat; charges for any work inside my flat will have to be borne by me.
Am I eligible for deductions of the amount I pay towards the annual maintenance from my Gross Salary while computing my Income Tax ?


30 December 2009 no, deduction is not allowed from salary income.it will be considered as cost of improvement.

30 December 2009 agree with expert, its not subject to salary.
