Housing loan and tax exemption on interest

446 views 2 replies

Hi,

I bought an apartment in my wife's name last year Sep' (2013). Property was registered in her name and entire loan is being paid by me. I was trying to claim tax exemption through my employer but they said it could be claimed only when am a co-owner or an owner. Please advise me whether how i could get returns while filing income taxes this year. Thanks in advance!

 

Regards,

Ram

You cannot claim deduction unless you are the owner or co-owner of the property. You could have asked your CA beforehand.

Thanks for the info Mihir.

Could you please let me know the options so that i could avail income tax benefits. As i am paying close to 2 Lakhs as interest i am desperately looking for some options to avail income tax benefits.
