YOU WILL GET THE POSSESSION OF THE HOUSE AFTER 18 MONTHS WHICH MAY SUGGEST YOU HAVE NOT GOT THE HOUSE REGISTERED IN YOUR NAME. ONLY PURCHASE AGREEMENT HAS BEEN SIGNED. TECHNICALLY YOU ARE NOT THE OWNER AS ON DATE AS I BELIEVE THE HOUSE IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION. HENCE NOT ENTITLED FOR INTEREST TILL CONSTRUCTION IS COMPLETE.

You may got a prove that your home was not rented and empy for last year. and provide to bank that your buseiness has been lost. so hope tax department can reduce or finish tax.

After Construction is completed. You can claim the deduction of interest paid, in 5 equal installments.
