Dear Saurabh,

       Where the shares of the co-owners are definite, income and interest must be divided among them in their respective ratio of shares. Hence, in the case, income and interest must be divided equally.

        Where their shares are indefinite, the whole income must be treated as income of Association of Persons.

in ur case, NAV will be zero as the house is self-occupied

my question is

what is the amount of interest which can be allowed as deduction in both the above case while computing income from house property

If the shares are definite, the int. to the extent of Rs.150000 can be claimed by each co-owner(Ie.4.5L). However, for the AOP, its only 1,50,000 and not 4.5L
