or repayment of principal Amt. of housing loan is covered under 80C
yes eligible for deduction under both sections
TNX FOR THE TIMELY REPLY.
No, deduction cannot be claimed u/s. 24(b) or 80C for loan repayment over plot.
However, there is a clause like the deduction on interest is limited to Rs. 30,000 instead of Rs 2 lakhs if
a. The loan is taken on or after 1 April 1999 and
b. The purchase or construction is not completed within 5 years from the end of the FY in which loan was availed( in case loan borrowed before fy2016, the period of completion is restricted to 3yrs)
In my client case, the loan repayment starts from fy2013. so till now, no construction is started ..so if iam right, the eligible interest deduction in this case would be limited to 30000/-. pls confirm. tnx
Only after your construction of house is completed, then you can think of any deduction be it 30000/-
