Dear Sir/Madam,
You will have to treat this year's interest as "pre-construction" and claim it equally over 5 years starting next year. From next year, you can claim each years accrued interest as well u/s 24.
80C deduction for pincipal u can claim once the construction is complete.

Dear Hello,
Interest paid upto March 2010 should be considered as "pre-construction" and it can be claimed equally over 5 years starting from next year when the construction gets complete. Next year, you can claim Pre construction interest as well as interest paid during the year....It is allowed on due basis....
80C deduction for pincipal repayment....only for post construction ....
