Dear Friends

i would like to discuss one case given below:

 

Mr. X Purchase a plot of land in 2010 for INR 50 Lac with the borrowed money 20 lac from bank.

in last 4 year Mr. X has paid interest on loan say  5 lac 

Query:  will this interest amount Rs. 5lac be added to cost of plot or  will it be a simply drawing

because no deduction is available u/s 24 b for this interest as plot is not a residential house.

 

To my mind it should be added to cost of plot for calculating capital gian if said plot sold.
