2nd home loan - tax benefit

* I am owning a house in Pune - I have taken home loan for it and availing tax benefit.
* I am staying in chennai in rented flat.
* I am planning to buy a flat in Chennai and want to give it for rent.
 
Question 1:
  Can I avail tax benefits on 2nd flat which I am going to buy in Chennai?
  If interest component for new flat that I am going to purchase is 2 Lakhs, will this total amount become tax free?
Question 2:
  Can I avail tax benefits on 2nd flat, if I move to new flat?

Yes you can claim the tax benefit with respect to intt. on loan without any limit but subject to that same will be rented-out.

If the flat is self-occupied, then interest available for deduction is Rs. 150,000/-

If the flat is on rent, then interest available for deduction is interest actually paid.

YES MR MIHIR IS RIGHT

If we are paying EMI of 2nd Home Rs.35000/- & we rented out our flat on Rent @ Rs. 11000 P. M.

In this situation, Which amount will be taxable for IT?

Total Rental income for the year will be taxable from which you can claim deduction of the interest component of the EMI.

If my owned house in Navi Mumbai & I am staying in Mumbai (around 30 Km away), then I claimed HRA & with Interest also or not???

U can claim interest as rightly said by MIhir. Based on interest amount u can decide whether to show rental income or income.

HRA exemption cannot be claimed when u own a house in same city.
