Interest on borrowed capital is deductible subject to a maximum limit of Rs.1,50,000/- provided the three conditions are satisfied: (1) capital is borrowed on or after 1st Apr'99 (2) the acqusition / contruction is completed within 3 years from the ned of the F Y in which the capital is borrowed; and (3) the said loan is taken for the purpose of acquisition / construction of the house If the above three conditions are not satisfied then the elibile deduciton shall be restricted to Rs.30000/-
Please note that the deduction shall be restricted to Rs.150000 / Rs.30000 per unit. Thus for the self occupied house property you shall be eligible to claim interest for Rs.143000/- and for let out house property the claim shall be retricted to Rs.150000/-
