I have a house in my name. But that house has been occupied by an unlawful occupant. A Suit has been filed by me for recovery of possession.
Now, I am residing in my mother's house and paying her Rs. 2000 per month as rent.
Whether I can claim Deduction for Rs. 24000 under Section 80GG ?

Following are the condtions for claiming deduction Conditions
• Assessee should not be in receipts of HRA. • The assessee or his spouse or minor child or the H UF in which he is a member should not own any residential accommodation at other place • No claim in respect of self occupied property is made in respect of any accommodation. • Assessee must file a declaration in form 10 BA wherein he confirms the details of rent paid and fulfilment of any other conditions.
In my opinion , you cannot claim in the deduction since you are violated one of the condition
