11 April 2013 dear you can take benefit of principle repayment of loan to bank during the year in which it is paid.. irrespective whether the construction of the house has been completed or not..

but you can take benefit of interest paid during the construction period only after getting the house constructed till then you have to capitalized it under the head pre- construction period interest.
