Just to add, along with the joint home loan, the parties also need to be the co-owners of the property in similar proportion to avail of the tax benefit.

Yes. If two or more assessees are co-owners of the property, both can claim deductions u/s 24(b) upto Rs. 150000 "each" provided all the conditions (loan on or after 1/4/99, const complete within 3 yrs of the end of the year in wich the loan is taken, necessary documents are submitted, loan is used for purchase or construction only).

Section 26 says that each co-owners can avail the benefit of deduction of Rs.150000
