Your father income from house property will be w.r.t. his own house. It being rented property, annual value will have to be calculated. he will get deduction of interest paid on loan from such income (max. 200000 p.a.) and for principal payment of loan, he can claim it under 80C.
Regarding the rent he is paying in the city, if he is salaried, he can claim the same as HRA exemption as per the limits therein.
