Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how two individuals should account for a joint housing loan. It explains that both parties can claim principal and interest deductions in their tax returns based on their respective ownership or payment shares. If one owner's income is below the taxable threshold, the other owner can claim the remaining deductible amount.

@ Amarjas,

What about the property's ownership of the two persons...??

In the ratio of payments made by each of them out of their income.

What is your loan sharing ratio or property ownership ratio??

Both person can claim Principal and Interest based on their contribution or share. 

One of the property owner's income less than taxable income or tax payable less than the portion. Other owner can claim rest of claimable amount.
