an employee is furnishing loss from house property as per form 12C as follows:
Rental Income 120000 Less: interest on borrowed capital 300000 Loss from house property 180000
He is having two properties: one he is residing in ie Self occupied property and another for which he receives rental income. Now my query is whether employer can entertain the loss of Rs.180000/- while computing the tds on salary or not? Kindly revert at the earliest as this is urgent.
