Hi, Sumana Here again.
Sorry to say I am not getting the correct reply. The flat where I am currently staying is having a interest component of 95000 in the home loan part. I am considering it under section 24.
But I have taken another home loan from HDFC which is not even completely disbursed, I am paying pre-emi now. The certificate which HDFC had issued me states that pre-emi interest I have paid in this financial year is 65,000 which as per there statement again falls under section 24.
Now the 2nd being a under construction property I can not show the other one as rent out. Pls. suggest now.

(1) Interest of Rs 95000 being paid towards Home Loan for Flat in which you are currently residing: This can be claimed as expenditure as you have been probably doing all along
(2) Pre-EMI interest of Rs 65000: Since the house is under construction, this cannot be claimed as expenditure at this stage.
After completion of house, total amount of Pre-EMI paid upto beginning of FY (in which house is completed),can be claimed as expenditure in five equal instalments from FY in which construction is completed
(2) Pre-EMI interest of Rs 65000: Since the house is under construction, this cannot be claimed as expenditure at this stage.

Interest upto Mar 09 (but not Jan 10)only is treated as Interest for Pre-construction period. One-fifth of this can be claimed as expenditure in FY 2009-10 (AY 2010-11). Balance can be claimed in next four years
Interest from Apr 09 to Mar 10 can be claimed as expenditure in FY 2009-10 (AY 2010-11)notwithstanding that construction is completed not in Apr 09 but in Jan 10, that is, only two months before FY end
You need to distinguish between "Pre-construction" and "Pre-EMI". "Pre-construction" is relevant but not "Pre-EMI" (Of course, I too used Pre-EMI in my previous reply in the absence of periods information)
If you are in Finance or Accounts, refer Para 39.3.2a of 31st edition of Singhania's Ready Reckoner; else please contact concerned Officers in Finance or Accounts departments of your Company
