As per New section 80EE, interest on housing loan can be claimed as deduction subject to other conditions. in the said section it is mentioned at 80EE (1) "............. interest payable on loan taken by him from any financial institution for the purpose of acquisition of a residential house property".
My doubt is does here the word acquisition includes construction or not, because at section 24(b) acquisition and constructions were separately treated.Hence if a person got a loan for construction can eligible for 80EE deduction????
