Tax benefit for home loan

Hello,

I had taken a home loan for the reconstruction of our house. The house is in the name of my parents and the loan includes my name along with my parents. This is because loan was sanctioned based on my salary. 

Can you please help me understand if I can take tax benefit of home loan EMI? 

 

Thanks

I Think as the loan is given based on you salary the main responsibility lies on you for repayment if it is the case

You can claim deduction on payment towards interst on Principal loan amount under section 80C and now having said that the agregate deduction under section 80C is restricted to Rs.1 Lakh................

You can not get any tax benefit on this because property in not in your name. Deduction of Intt u/s 24 is allowed in respect of intt on borrwed capital for construction of your house. Since you do not own the home, you can not claim the deduction.

To claim exemption for interest on home loan repaid the property has to be in your name.

Agree with Mr. D.C. Bansal. For claiming deduction u/s 24 & sec. 80C you must have the ownership of the said proprty for which loan is taken..
