18 July 2014 both are paying interest. then

18 July 2014 then both will be allowed if both have taken loan

18 July 2014 you have any case reference of section detail, because she(wife) does not have any right in that property.

18 July 2014 whether she hads right or not if laon is taken then its allowed refer sec 24(b)

18 July 2014 unfortunately no. the claim for interest deduction comes into picture only where the wife has either direct or beneficial ownership of the property. So you need to establish the beneficial ownership first.

18 July 2014 pls provide any valid supportings to ur ans..........

21 July 2014 Hello Nikhil please supporting for the above query

21 July 2014 This is so because the interest deduction is available only if you are offering the income from house property in your tax return. It is but natural that you can do so only if you have direct or beneficial ownership of the property.

Joint loan doesn't create that ownership.

Further, in the tax return, you need to provide the details of ownership of the property. If your ownership is "Zero", then its not your property!
