Hello everyone,

One of the client has paid 4 months Pre Emi Interest for the last FY 2022-23 (Asst year: 2023-24), and he got Occupancy Letter in the month of March.

As per bank certificate:

PRINCIPAL COMPONENT Rs. 8,441.00

INTEREST COMPONENT Rs. 49,833.00

PRE-EMI INTEREST Rs. 1,23,989.00

While filing return, which interest amount to be considered?

Both interest components will be considered.

The entire interest component can be claimed as deduction. with respect to prior period interest, only 1/5th of 123989 has to be claimed as deduction and the rest of the amount has to be claimed in equal proportions in 4 assessment years

No, Both interest not available for deduction.
