Get Complete Details about Home Loan Scheme.
As per Sec 24(b) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 a deduction up to Rs. 1,50,000 towards the total interest payable on the home loan towards purchase / construction of house property can be claimed while computing the income from house property. (The deduction stands reduced to Rs. 30,000 in case of loans taken prior to 01st Mar 1999). The interest payable for the pre-acquisition or pre - construction period would be deductible in five equal annual instalments commencing from the year in which the house has been acquired or constructed.
Please remember that in case of self occupied property, this deduction is allowed only for one such self - occupied property. The interest towards home loan taken for purchase, construction, repairs, renewal or reconstruction of house property is eligible for deduction under section 24(b).
As per the newly introduced Sections 80C read with section 80CCE of the Income Tax Act, 1961 the principal repayment up to Rs. 1,00,000 on your home loan will be allowed as a deduction from the gross total income subject to fulfilment of prescribed conditions. Let us consider a hypothetical example:
Suppose your taxable income is: Rs. 5,50,000
Principal repayment for the same year: Rs. 1,10,000 and Interest payable for the year : Rs. 1,60,000. Total Deductions allowed: Rs. 2,50,000 (Rs. 1,50,000 towards interest payable & Rs. 1,00,000 for principal repayment of the loan)
Thus, your taxable income will reduce to Rs. 3,00,000 ( Rs. 5,50,000 - Rs. 2,50,000 ).
