Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether home loan processing fees are deductible under Section 24(b) of the Income Tax Act. While the section primarily covers interest, the definition of 'interest' can include service fees. Therefore, processing fees may be claimable as a deduction, provided you have an interest certificate from your bank to support the claim.

No. It is only interest part of the loan is deductible under the section; which is to be supported by interest certificate provided by Bank.

The definition of interest as per section 2(28A) includes any service fee, therefore we can claim it as deduction under section 24(b).
