I have a gifted property, of a piece of land.

I am planning to avail housing loan for construction on this gifted property.

May I know please, whether I am eligible to claim deduction in housing repayment principal and interest paid, as the land is gifted and construction by me

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether you can claim tax deductions on a housing loan taken out for construction on a gifted piece of land. The consensus is that once the land is legally gifted, the receiver becomes the owner and is eligible to claim deductions for both the principal and interest paid on the housing loan.

Yes, once gifted the receiver becomes owner of the land.

Claim deduction for principal and interest.
Thanx
