Taxability of House Property
This query is : Resolved
03 September 2009
I have a house property in Baroda (taken on loan) which was self-occupied but now given on rent. We are living in Bombay as I am transferred.
I have also taken loan for purchase of flat in Delhi which we have rented out. My wife is sole-owner of flat.
Now I have following questions:
1. For my Delhi Flat for which I am repaying loan from my taxable income (as my wife is house wife), whether I am eligible for interest paid as deduction from rental income? My wife is sole owner of flat; however loan is in my name.
2. My Baroda house is in joint name with my mother. Can rental value be divided in equal share among us for showing income under Income Tax?
3. Can I avail the full interest deduction on my Baroda house as I am repaying loan from my taxable income?
Thanks a lot for your valuable time..
Regards,
Rahul

Dear Sampat,
Thanks for info..
However with respect to claiming deduction for my Delhi Flat is it not the requirement that I have to be co-owner?
Actually I was reading various articles/queries after posting my query. What I came to know is that it is necessary to be owner/co-owner of property for claiming deduction for interest and principal. Also I would not be considered as "deemed owner" as I am not falling in the definition.
Please give your advise on this.
