Hi , Yes in my opinion in case of reconstruction this much deduction is permissible in case of self occupied house and in any other case even more deduction is allowed.

You can get the deduction u/s 24(b). Interest on borrowed capital is allowable as deduction on accrual basis if capital is borrowed for the purpose of purchase, construction, repair, renewal or reconstruction of the house property.
