First of all, congratulations to your brother on purchasing new flat.
Your Brother can claim following deductions while calculation of his total income - 1. Interest on Loan (Max upto Rs 150000 if Self occupied property, otherwise actual interest amount) is allowed u/s 24 while calculation of Income from House Property IHP). If this make your IHP negative, you can set off such loss from Income from salary.
2. Repayment of Principal Amount of Loan - Allowed as deduction u/s 80C (Max upto Rs. 100000) from Gross Total income
