Wife can claim deductions toward interest paid. Husband cannot claim. He is not the owner or co-owner.

Thankyou sir. But, however asseessee has another house, can he claim that the loan has baan used for renovation of the house

Interest deduction allowed for renovation or repairs in house is upto 30,000/-. But one has to be the owner or co-owner of the house.
