Deduction under section 24(b) query

Tax queries 197 views 2 replies

Dear Experts,

Let us say there are couple named Mr. X and Mrs. X. For example, if Mr. X owns a house property registered in his name and the housing loan is also in the name of Mr. X, however the interest on housing loan is repayed by Mrs. X out of the earned by her.

Then who can claim deduction under section 24(b) on this payment i.e Mr. X or Mrs. X. ??

 

Thanks and Regards,

Dear Friend,

  • For claiming deduction u/s 24 (b), Assessee must be the OWNER or DEEMED OWNER of the property.
  • Loan Must be in the name of assessee ( owner).

In your case, Mr. X is the owner of the house property  and also loan in the name of Mr. X

. Hence, only Mr. X can claim deduction u/s 24(b).

 

 

Thanks a lot ..... :)
