A person takes loan against his existing property (LAP) and purchases another property with this amount. The new property purchased is fully constructed and completed. He wants to give this property on rent to some firm/company in which he is partner/director. He wants to capitalise the interest paid on LAP till the period the business is commenced by new firm/company in this property into the cost of property. can he do so. Pls. answer along with relevant section/case law etc.
What is the position if he wants to strart new business in this property as proprietor of some firm. can he capitalize interest paid till the commencement of business into cost of property.
Thanks & regards
