Second house, income tax and interest deduction

Hi,

My work location is gurgaon. I own a house on Kolkata which is on joint name of my mother and myself. Kolkata flat has no loan. My mother stays in this flat and I visit this 2-3 times in a year.

Now, I have purchased a house in gurgaon with home loan. I would be staying in the Gurgaon flat. This flat is in name of me and my wife. Loan repayment is paid by me only.

I have following questions:

1. As I will be now owning two properties, can I show gurgaon flat as deemed letout ? That way I can claim whole interest from home loan and I can get good tax benefit.

2. If I can show gurgaon flat as deemed letout, which address will I show in ITR form. As I will be staying in gurgaon flat and showing it as deemed letout, I think I have to put gurgaon address in my IT return ?

3. In case if I am able to show gurgaon flat as deemed letout, do I have to pay 1% wealth tax ? This 1% is calculated on registered value of property ?

4. Please suggest some other ways how I can avail whole interest deduction from gurgaon flat even tough I will be staying in gurgaon flat.

Regards,sroy
