As you are not the owner of the property you are not eligible to claim interest under the act, even though you pay the EMI. I wish to understand as how could you offer income on a property standing in the name of your wife in your assessment.Allowability of interest is determined by ownership and not by payment of EMI

Since you are offering house property income, you can show the income by clubbing your wife's income, so that you can claim interest and principal repayment
