06 May 2014 Mr A may claim what he wishes to, for income-tax purposes, Ms S shall be considered beneficial owner to the extent she contributed the money for purchase of house and shall accordingly be eligible to claim deduction under 24(b0 and 80C.

word of caution, this treatment would also require that any income from this house is also offered to tax in the same proportion as the funds contributed by Ms S bears to funds contributed by Mr A
