25 January 2013 Ankur, you have not framed a question.
The case will be covered u/s 23(2)(b) which says that if the owner cannot actually occupy the house due to the fact that employment or business in in another place and he resides in other place which is not belonging to him, then the annual value of the house will be taken to be NIL.
For interest you will get deduction of upto Rs. 1.5 lakh
and also you can claim the HRA exemption
