a) directly as expenses from my total income (pension, interest) during the year or
b) u/s 80C?

NO MAM, U CANT DEDUCT THEM AS EXPENSES.... STAMP DUTY AND OTHER CHARGES WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE COST OF THE HOUSE,as a cost of acquisition (COA), when u sale this house it will reduce from sale value while calculating capital gain...IN INCOME TAX.
stamp duty paid can be claimed u/s 80C in the year of payment.
