if a person taken home loan for new property and claim deduction but after some years if he takes top up on that loan and against same property can he claim deduction of interest and principal on both amount or just on home loan. pls clarify
Yes, you can get tax deduction benefit on the top-up loan if you have receipts/documents to prove that the loan taken has been used for acquisition/construction/repair/renovation of a residential property.
The tax benefit is available only on the interest portion of the loan under section 24.
In that case how can you expect to get interest deduction under HP. Better ask its deduction from PGBP. (though prooving utilization of top-up home loan in business and getting its deduction is bit difficult)
