24 November 2012 In case of co-owners, see who has paid how much -leaving the loan amount aside.
.
In case the amount is paid in Cash, then in the Income Tax file, how its segregation is being made.
.
How the co-owners understand the extent of each individual's right ?
.
How the repayment obligation is going to be met by the co-owners.
.
All these points will decide share of each co-owner.
.
If they decide to have equal right, show accordingly in the respective borrower's Balance Sheet by treating any extra amount paid one co-borrower as a liability of the other.
.
U/s 24 each co-owner has a maximum deduction limit of Rs 1.50 lac in the case of a self occupied property subject to the amount of interest. In this case Rs 1.00 lac can be claimed in case of each co-borrower.
