07 October 2011 Mr. Kapoor will allowed to claim standard deduction 1/3 i.e. 30% of Annual value for all the exp.for repairs etc irrespective of amount spend. This is the mixx deduction for such exp.The allowance is under the head of Income from house property.
Mr. kapoor will not get deduction for muncipal taxes from Annual value as the amount is paid by the tenant and not by him.
