In case of self occupied u/s 24(b) restricted to 200000
In case of let out u/s 24(b) 450000/2 =225000 can deduct
since interest on self occupied is above 200000 then additional deduction 50000 allowed u/s 80EE provided that loan sanctioned <= 35lakhs and value of the house<=50lakhs.
please confirm whether the limit of 2 Lac.is applicable for letout floor for. FY 2017-18
Yaa I too have doubt about that for both let out and self occupied , the maximum limit is 2 lakhs. Is it correct?
For self occupied house the maximum limit is 200000..where as for let out house the maximum limit for CY is 200000.(.last year it was unlimited) .total 4 lac. .plus 50000 if the cost of the house is less than 50 lakh. .and the loan availed is less than 35 lakhs. .during 2016-17..
