@ poornima @ Shruti Sorry,both of you are correct. The Income from house property is mentioned in Form 16. However, while filing his Income Tax Return, the taxpayer needs to enter the same amount in the ITR form through which he is filing his ITR return. Also, the interest paid on house loan is deductible only if the house construction is complete. Calculating income from house loan requires to numbers of particulars to be taken into account such as fair rent, municipal tax paid, standard rent, vacant period, etc. We first calculate the gross annual value and then we calculate income from house property. Use ITR 1 if there is income only from one house property. If there is income from more than one house property, use ITR 2S.
Hope this helps,
