Quick Summary
This discussion explores the tax deductibility of interest paid on loans for commercial properties, specifically shops. Unlike home loan interest, shop loan interest can be claimed as a business expense under the Profits & Gains from Business or Profession (PGBP) head. While full interest paid is deductible, any resulting loss cannot be set off against other income, and principal repayment is not deductible.
You can claim standard deduction as well as interest Deduction for commercial property upto net annual value that is gross rent minus municipality tax but if there's is loss then no set off with any income head as per new rule and you can not take principal Deduction
You can claim it by showing it as an Expense in the debit side of Profit & Loss A/c under the head PROFITS & GAINS FROM BUSINESS OR PROFESSION ( PGBP ).
