If you already claimed the deduction of Interest , then you can't claim it again.
In my view If you have not claimed then you can include it as a cost of Acquisition, and can do indexing.
Interest paid on loan can be claimed as deduction u/s 24(b) and also under section 80EE for residential property upto 50000 rupees. But I think for calculation of capital gains you can deduct Interest on loan u/s 48 subject to if you don't have deducted earlier
Act is silent on that. i dont find a provision which provides for treatment of interest in clear terms
Refer section 48 of IT ACT
You need to read section 48 again.
