After rescheduling the unpaid interest becomes principal.
It can not be said that the accrued interest has been paid on rescheduling. As such non-payment of interest results into waiver of deduction on this particular part.
However, Interest will be calculated on the ENHANCED amount which is deductible U/s 80E on payment basis.
