SHOULD THE EMPLOYER CONSIDER INTEREST ON HOUSING LOAN FOR DEDUCTION FROM SALARY INCOME FOR THE PURPOSE OF TDS ON A HOUSE PROPERTY SITUATED AT A PLACE OTHER THAN THE PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT?
IN THE EVENT YES, SHOULD THE DEEMED INCOME FROM HOUSE PROPERTY SHOULD ALSO BE CONSIDERED BY EMPLOYER (WHICH MAY ALSO RESULT IN SURPLUS INCOME FROM HOUSE PROPERTY)
WILL THE ANSWER BE ANY DIFFERENT IN CASE SUCH HOUSE PROPERTY IS OCCUPIED BY PARENT/RELATIVES OF THE ASSESSEE IN HIS NATIVE PLACE/USUAL PLACE OF RESIDENCE?

IN CASE OF SELF OCCUPIED PROPERTY, ANNUAL VALUE IS NIL.YOU CAN CLAIM DEDUCTION OF INTEREST ON HOUSING LOAN.BUT YOU CANNOT CLAIM 30% STD. DEDUCTION AND PROPERTY TAX ANNUAL VALUE BEING ZERO. SO THE EMPLOYER CAN CONSIDER THE APPLICABLE DEDUCTIONS STATED ABOVE AND DEDUCT TDS ACCORDINGLY. IF THE PROPERTY IS OCCUPIED BY PARENTS/RELATIVES AS IT IS AWAY FROM PLACE OF EMPLOYEMNT ,STILL THE DEDUCTIONS CAN BE CLAIMED . EVEN HRA CAN ALSO BE CLAIMED IN SUCH A CASE. R.V.RAO

The property constructed shall be taken as self occupied property provided u do not have any other self property. Hence no income. However, if this be ur second property than it would be taken as deemed to be let out and income shall be included in ur total income.
