There are differences of opinion for claiming both HRA and Interest on HBL if both houses are situated in the same city.
I believe the department can disallow the one of the claim and will allow either HRA or Interest however I can't substantiate my opinion by referring any section or judicial pronouncement.
So would like to hear other experts opinion with some clear direction.

An assessee is residing in rented house away from the own house due to his employment/business reason the for income from the particular house property is to be calculated as self occupied property per sec.23(2)(b).so this section is giving permission to take interest deduction and for HRA claim only assessee is to stay in rented house and paying rent and getting HRA from his employer so here also eligible for claiming HRA exemption
my view both can be claimed if the city is different
