Applicable from 2018-19 onwards .... The loss from house property can be set off against Income from Other Heads .... upto limits of Rs 2 lakhs for each financial year.

The sequence of heads is irrelevant.

You can carry forward the remaining loss amount to the next fiscal year to set off.

Upto Rs. 2 lakhs means maximum upto Rs. 2 lakhs, not above that...

If loss from head IFHP is Rs. 3 lakhs... One can set off loss of Rs. 2 lakhs against any other head in same financial year, and remaining loss of Rs. 1 lakh is carried forward (max 8 years) that can be adjusted only against IFHP.
