u/s 80C only payment of Principal amount is allowed for deduction, which have been taken for the purpose of construction of House.
However, you can claim only Interest portion (u/s 24b) while computing Income from House Property and repayment of principal amount is not allowed anywherelse for Repair & Renovation.
