Sir, I have taken a home loan based on my salary. My wife is house wife with no source of income. Entire loan EMI is paid by me but my wife is coapplicant in my home loan. The house i purchased is in the name of my wife. Will I be eligible for Tax rebate on interest paid by me?

But the house is registered in the name of my wife? Is it not necessary that the property should be in my name to claim the tax benifit?
