28 July 2014 if u have two houses, pls clarify wheather both r self occupied, on one is rented and other is self occupied.
suppose both are self occupied, then annual value of one house will be nil and annual value of other house will be municipal value or fair rent , whichever is higher will be taken as deemed income and u will get the deduction of interest, as if the houses is rented out.
pls note choice lies with the assessee to choose , which house be treated as rented and which one as self occupied
