Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules for claiming interest deductions on a second home loan. If you've paid off your first home, you can claim interest on your second property. The key is understanding that deductions are aggregated across all properties, with a maximum of £200,000 for self-occupied properties under Section 24, and an additional £150,000 potentially available under the newer Section 80EEA for first-time buyers taking out fresh loans.

@ susmita
you will get a benefit of Rs.350000.
sec 80EEA RS.150000
SEC 24 RS.200000.

SEC 80EEA APPLICABLE FRON AY 2021.
THIS IS TO BOOST THE HOUSING SECTOR AND ALSO PROVIDE THE INDIVIDUALS TO APPLY FOR FRESH LOANS FROM BANKS.
LENDING SECTOR WILL GET A BOOST.

ELIGIBILTY CONDITIONS:
1.

Which ever house is treated as SOP is eligible to get full Interest deduction

Interest deduction is not qua any house. it's in aggregate 2 lakhs maximum all put together

Interest Deduction is for self occupied property it is aggregate of RS 200000 but for property which is Let-out for that no bar is specified.

sec 80EEA IS A NEW SECTION INTRODUCED OVER AND ABOVE SEC 24 .
IT HAS BEEN INTRODUCED TO GIVE INDIVIDUALS OPTIONS TO PURCHASE NEW HOUSE PROPERTY.
What options ?
