31 August 2014 As per Income tax pre construction period interest means - interest on housing loan up to the end of Financial year, immediately preceding the year in which construction of house is completed.

Suppose construction completed on 31.08.2014 then interest till 31.03.2014 is called pre-construction period interest.
