Y to take housing loan if house is already complete and ready also 18 years old. And 80 G doesn't seems promising option as he either donate or pay tax, he is going to loose money. Then y not pay the tax rather going for donations. I m not against donation but this doesn't seems good for the assesee

You have availed all the options available and hence you are on the right track. Housing loan is not an option because first you borrow and then on the borrowing bank charges interest which is to be paid by you and then claim the deduction. What is the benefit? The only benefit is that this interest is allowable as deduction from your income but physically you have to pay it to the bank which will reduce your capital.
