Income tax benefit on maintenance on the self occupied flat

Hi, I have one rented flat on which I am paying income tax as per the calculation. I have another flat in which I am residing with my family. Both of my flats are loan free. I am not availing any tax benefit on the occupied property, my question is, is it possible to claim the benefit on the maintenance of the self occupied property, anyways i am spending on the maintenance of the flat. I am also not availing any tax benefit on rent for me since I am residing in my own flat. Please advise.

Mr Pankaj, on SOP you will only get the benefit of interest paid on hom loan taken, whihc will get deducted form your taxable income.  No other benefit can be availed on SOP.

For let-out property you will get the tax benefits on account of Municipal Tax paid from the rent received & again on the balance you can get 30% Std Ded for expenses incurred on account of expenses incurred for the property.  Your income would be calculated as follows:

annual Lettable Value                               xxxxxx

Less:Municipal Taxed paid                          xxx

Net Adjusted Annual Value                        xxxxx

Less: 30% Std Deduction NAAV                   xxx

Income from house Property                     xxxxxx
