20 December 2012 First Check the intimation u/sec 143(1) & check the tax calculated by u & AO. As he caanot send the refund if you have tax liability it should be adjusted against your refund. And if such things happen go for the rectification u/sec 157. rectification is possible only when there is a prima facie mistake in the intimation.

21 December 2012 As your job in Chennai, you did not own property at Chennai for the exemption of HRA. And you would also get the benefit of repayment of Interest & Principle amount of Mumbai house. The only thing is that you would get 2nd benefit if you paid all the installment. For HRA benefit you have to check out condition for exemption u/sec 10.

Thanks you very much for you reply. I did not understand "The only thing is that you would get 2nd benefit if you paid all the installment"

Do you mean the EMI for the home loan ??

Thanks & Regards
