Friends
I have a question on income tax.
A home loan is jointly taken Mr. F and his son Mr. S and the interest on loan paid to financial institution is Rs 10,000 in FY 2014-15 from joint account. In this scenario, is both the individual tax payers allowed a deduction of Rs 10,000/- each under section 24 of the IT Act 1961. Or the amount of interest of Rs 10,000/- be divided in some proportion for deduction in their individual respective computations.
Suppose, the payment is made from the bank account of Mr. F. Then does the answer change.
