I have taken loan against house alloted to me.I have received allotment letter but still i have not received possession of that plot.My question is weather interest on loan taken for payment of house instalment is available for deduction or not under section 24.

No, actual provision is if possession not given due to construction not completed then 1/5 for every year. if construction completed but possession not given you can claim full in Sec 24

YES .IF CONSTRUCTION IS NOT COMPLETE AND POSSESSION NOT TAKEN, 1/5 TH OF INTEREST CAN BE CLAIMED AS PRECONSTRC. INT IN 5 INSTALMENTS. ONLY ON COMPLETION OF CONSTRC. AS IN YOUR CASE, YOU CAN CLAIM FULL INT. AS PER CERT. GIVEN BY HOME LOAN BANKER. R.V.RAO
