18 November 2011 hii .. my query is in respect of interest on housing loan .. if interest has been debited by d bank on a housing loan but the assessee has paid only a part of the interest , how much deduction can he claim under " income from house property " ?

Also if an assessee has let out property , from which he has received rent only for 3 months but interest on housing loan has been paid for the entire year , can he claim the full amount of interest as deduction under " income from house property " ?
