21 July 2015How to calculate IFHP if the property was let out but was vacant throughout the P.Y.
For Eg. A house property having a municipal value of Rs.5 lacs, fair rent Rs. 6 lacs was intended to let out to tenants. Unfortunately during the P.Y. there was no tenant for this house property. Municipal tax is Rs 5,000 ( of which Rs 1,200 is payable). Interest paid on loan taken for purchase of property is Rs 1,79,000. What is the IFHP?
