08 January 2014 % of allowability of interest U/s. 24 and repayment of principal amount U/s. 80C basing on loan amount recorded in your books of accounts.
Example : Your Wife books (40% loan)and your books (60% of loan) is recorded. Then allowable expenses in your hands is 60% of loan repaid & interest paid during the year.
