Ans.: No
 

Depends upon property registration...

If the property is registered in the name of husband, and investment made by wife.

Not claimable, unless the investment is through husband's account.

It is not necessary that the property should be registered in the name of assessee (husband) only. Here the intention of law is to make you invest and is not concerned with the person in whose name it is registered.
