u can't claim the deduction u/s 24 unless the construction is completed. the intt for the period of construction is also allowed as deduction in 5 equal instalments after the completion of the house.

can't we claim upto Rs. 30,000/-?

You can,t take deduction u/s 24B before completing the construction of house property,because u can take deduction when u offer income of HP to the income tax authority first time and it is possible when Hp is completed...deduction is allowed Pre & post period.

hi

thanks 2 Vishal & Jitender
