if i am purchase house of rs.55 lacs in f.y.2017-18 and taken a loan of rs.50 lacs then should i get deduction on interest on housing loan? if yes , then how much ?
Sir/Madam, interest is allowable as deduction under the head income from house property. interest should be calculated on borrowed capital i.e 50 lakhs.
If the property is self occupied, interest will be capped at interest or 2 lakhs whichever is lower
if the property is let out, whole of interest per annum is allowed as deduction. there's no limit in this case
Sir, There's no amendment in the finance act 2017. Only change is loss from the head Income from House Property is restricted to 2lakhs w.e.f. AY 2018-19
