Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a personal loan taken for house construction qualifies for tax deductions under Section 80C. While the section typically refers to housing loans, it doesn't explicitly exclude personal loans used for construction. Therefore, you may be eligible to claim deductions on both the principal repayment and the interest paid.

As per sec 80C Repayment of loan taken from Banks or Financial institutions for purchase or construction of House,
there is no mention whether there should be house loan or personal loan....

No. Its clearly mentioned loan taken for construction of house and the repayment of principal can be claimed in 80c
