I raised a housing loan for an Apartment, bought as a joint owner (70% share) in 2009 and claimed the Exemption from Interest component till 2015 when I cleared the outstanding loan. The property is self-occupied at the moment. In the meantime, I bought another apartment as a joint owner (70% share), with a housing loan in 2021. Both the properties are not rented. Can I claim the exemption in the interest component on the Housing loan for this second property after indicating it as self-occupied?

In addition to the above, you can claim maximum only up to 2 lakhs in the year; rest is carried forward to be adjusted under the head IFHP.
