Tax deduction for Home Loan

I am private sector employee, planning to reduce my taxes.

Can I avail home loan to purchase home from my mother and utilize tax benifits on home loan interest u/s 24. If yes, can I still claim HRA as I will not reside in that newly bought home.

What is the maximum deduction allowed for home loan u/s 24?

Thank you.

This discussion clarifies home loan tax deductions for private sector employees. It explains that interest deductions under Section 24 are not available under the new tax regime. You can claim interest paid to your mother if you rent elsewhere, but you cannot claim both HRA and Section 24(b) deductions simultaneously if your property is in the same city.
