Dear Friends,

1. Kindly confirm whether the interest borrowed from private persons or any other private non Banking financial institutions for purchase of Plot and construction of House property is eligible for Deduction U/s 24 (b). if so quote me the notification/Circulars clarifying the same.

2. Whether Amount Borrowed by way of Mortgage loan from a private housing finance company towards purchase of plot is eligible for Deduction U/s 24(b). (House is to be constructed in near furture in the plot), 


Thanks in advance.

Yes. Interest on capital borrowed for the aforsaid purpose is  allowed as ded. on accrual basis. It can be borrowed from any person. But it should be kept in mind that the assessee should get a cerificate from the lender to the effect that loan is taken, and  bifercate the amt in principal and Interest portion. It is a practical situation.

The word used is property and not House property. So even loan taken for the purpose of Plot is also eligible. Keep in mind the provisons of Capital gain regarding 1 year and 3 years period under section 54 and 54 F and pre-construction period interest.
