Section 24(B) Interest on Personal Loan


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
You can claim a deduction for interest paid on a personal loan used for house repairs, renovation, or to repay a reconstruction loan, under Section 24(B). However, there's an annual limit of Rs. 30,000 for this deduction.
