Section 80EE came into effect from the financial year 2013-14. It was available for only 2 years, FY 2013-14 and FY 2014-15. The deduction allowed earlier was limited to a maximum of Rs 1 lakh in total and was available for only 2 financial years. However, this section has been reintroduced, effective FY 2016-17 (AY 2017-18). Now the deduction is allowed for up to Rs. 50,000 per year until the loan is repaid.
Hi,
My question is, If I took the home loan 36 Lakh and I paid Rs. 2 Lakh towards loan. So current home loan is 34 Lakh. Does it is applicable to claim Rs. 50000 under 80EE ?
