U/s 24(b) of the Income Tax Act-1961, deduction up to Rs. 150,000/- is admissible against the interest payable on the loan availed for purchase / construction of the self occupied house property.My doubt, is it applicable for co-owernship properties? If yes, is the limit Rs.!50,000/- per head or aggregate amount?

Thank you
