To compute the income under the head "House Property" for Mr. Parampal Singh for the assessment year 2010-11, we need to consider the following details and calculations:
### **Details:** 1. **House Property Breakdown:** - **Self-Occupied (SO):** 25% of the property. - **Business Use (BU):** 25% of the property. - **Let Out (LO) - Residential:** 25% of the property, rented at ₹1K per month. - **Let Out (LO) - Non-Residential:** 25% of the property, rented at ₹1K per month from 01-Apr-2009 to 28-Feb-2010, then used for self-occupation from 01-Mar-2010.
2. **Expenses:** - **Municipal Taxes:** ₹4K per annum - **Fire Insurance Premium:** ₹1,200 per annum - **Repairs:** ₹3.2K per annum - **Interest on Loan:** ₹36K
### **Calculation:**
#### **1. Compute Gross Annual Value (GAV) for Let Out Portions**
- **Non-Residential Portion (25%):** - Rent per month: ₹1K - Duration: 01-Apr-2009 to 28-Feb-2010 (11 months) - Annual Rent for this period: ₹1K × 11 = ₹11K
**Since the non-residential portion is occupied by Mr. Parampal Singh from 01-Mar-2010 onwards, rental income for this period will be ignored for the current financial year.**
**Thus, the GAV will be the total of the residential rental income and the non-residential rental income received during the financial year.**
- **GAV Calculation:** - Residential Rent: ₹12K - Non-Residential Rent (only for 11 months in FY 09-10): ₹11K
**Total GAV = ₹12K + ₹11K = ₹23K**
#### **2. Compute Net Annual Value (NAV)**
- **Municipal Taxes:** ₹4K (deductible) - **NAV Calculation:** - NAV = GAV - Municipal Taxes - NAV = ₹23K - ₹4K = ₹19K
#### **3. Compute Income from House Property**
- **Income from Let Out Portion:** - **NAV:** ₹19K - **Less: Standard Deduction (30% of NAV):** 30% of ₹19K = ₹5.7K
- **Interest on Loan for Construction:** ₹36K (deductible under section 24(b) for let-out property)
**Note:** The loan interest can be claimed fully against the rental income, as there are no restrictions on the amount for let-out properties.
- **Income Calculation:** - Income from Let Out Portion = NAV - Standard Deduction - Interest on Loan - Income from Let Out Portion = ₹19K - ₹5.7K - ₹36K - Income from Let Out Portion = -₹22.7K (a loss)
**This loss can be set off against other income under the head "Income from House Property" or carried forward as per IT rules.**
#### **4. Compute Income for Self-Occupied and Business Use**
- **Self-Occupied Portion (25%):** - No rental income, hence no income or deduction applicable.
- **Business Use Portion (25%):** - The portion used for business cannot be treated as income from house property. Expenses related to business use can be accounted for in the business accounts.
### **Summary of Income from House Property for AY 2010-11:**
- **Income from Let Out Portion:** Loss of ₹22,700 - **Income from Self-Occupied Portion:** Nil - **Income from Business Use Portion:** Nil
**Therefore, the overall computation of income under the head "House Property" will reflect a loss of ₹22,700. This loss can be adjusted against other heads of income or carried forward as per tax regulations.**
**Ensure to keep all relevant documents and proof for deductions and claims as per the Income Tax Act. For precise calculations and compliance, consider consulting a tax advisor or CA.**
