Interest on housing loan is allowed as deduction from Income from House Property.
Since, the house is self oocupied, the income shall be NIL. Deduction of interest paid shall be allowed from this NIL income and there will be loss under the head house property.
However, since the house is self occupied, interest shall be allowed only to the extent of Rs. 1,50,000/-
