Hello All,
I have a home loan on a housing property, which is self occupied & also let out (one floor) at the same time.
For tax calcualtion should i consider self occupied or let out property. With self occupied I get only 150000 where as with let out option I can get the benfit of the full interest amount component of the home loan.
Please advice me the correct option per income tax rules.
Thanks.
FOR TAXATION PURPOSES U NEED TO CALCULATE TAX ON IT AS IF IT WAS LET OUT PROPERTY(DEEMED LET OUT PROPERTY).SO U CAN CLAIM TOTAL INTEREST PAID BY U AS THERE IS NO LIMIT AS REGARDS TO INTEREST FOR LET OUT PROPERTY.
I MAY THOUGHT THAT AS U LOSS BENIFIT OF SELF OCCUPIED PROPERTY U WILL BE GIVEN TOTAL INTEREST PAID AS DEDUCTION
You have to make two calculations : one for house property Ground floor (SELF OCCUPIED) and other for Let out (First Floor) and have to divide the ineterst.
