15 February 2023 Sir

A person is claiming Home Loan Interest paid to an Individual for IT purpose.

But he has not taken any Home Loan from any Banks.

Whether this interest paid to individual can be considered for Income Tax working.

Thanks.

But he has not taken any loan from banks. Then also is it exempted.

15 February 2023 Interest repayment for a home loan that is taken from friends or relatives can be claimed as a deduction under section 24. The deduction can only be claimed when the construction of the house is complete, or the possession is received by the individual. The income tax act does not specify clearly that deduction will be available only for loans from specified banks.
