Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether excess home loan repayments, beyond the regular EMI, can be claimed for tax deductions under Section 80C. It explains that while principal repayment can be claimed, interest deduction is generally for the property owner. However, if the wife is a co-owner and co-borrower, both can claim interest deductions proportionally up to the limit.
Housing Loan EMI is allowed to the extent of the loan used for that specific purpose. What do you mean by Excess Loan paid ??
Further interest deduction is allowed to the owner of the house property. If wife is co-owner in house property and in loan also co-borrower then in that proportion both husband and wife will be allowed interest Deduction in income tax returns upto a max of 2 lakhs to each one.
