11 January 2017 An Individual has taken loan from his employer for purchase of house. But the employer is a Proprietorship or Partnership firm. Can deduction for repayment of loan be availed under section 80C.

The major part of the salary income is gone in repayment of the housing loan taken from employer. how can the individual benefit from this...?

Pls help to compute the taxable income
