What exactly is extra work? If it is in connection with making the new house habitable then you may claim deduction in respect of it too.

You can clain whole on Rs. 10,00,000 as interest
and only 30000 on loan of RS. 500000 for extra work.
but if Loan of RS. 500000 taken for inital construction of house than u can claim whole 200000 as interest.
