Stamp Duty & Registration Fee Exemption for Tax Saving

This query is : Resolved 

30 December 2008 Can I claim tax relief for the amount that I pay as registration fee and stamp duty for registering a house/property that I bought using a housing loan amount?

I have not received possession of flat yet, but I have already paid registration fee and stamp duty in the month July 2008. Please guide. & Also please mention can I show this money for saving tax in financial year 2008-2009.

30 December 2008 In my view you cannot claim deduction u/s 80C(2)(xviii)since you have no possession over the property.

30 December 2008 You can claim deduction u/s 80 c as you are the owner of the flat. And you can also claim the interest amount deduction under the head house property.


30 December 2008 Thanks for your reply.
But if I get possession over the property in may 2009, will I be able to claim it next year (2009-2010) IT saving?

But date on registration certificate is July 2008.

30 December 2008 Mr. CA Chaitanya thanks for your reply.
