Dear Vasanth
Interest on Housing Loan paid/payable during the year is deductible u/s 24 from the income from House Property. Briefly your query can be solved as below:
If the house is not constructed fully, interest on loan up to year of construction (excl. the year of construction) cannot be deducted now. It will be deductible after completion of construction in five installments beginning from the year in which it got completed.
If the house is fully constructed, entire interest is deductible if it is let out and interest upto 1.5 lacs p.a. is deductible if it is self-occupied. Interest of pre-construction period is also deductible in 5 installments in the post construction period.

Dear Pon Sorry to disagree, But I believe that the limit of 1.5 lacs is applicable only in case of Self occupied Property. Rajiv

Sir,
I browsed through your notes and I have one doubt regarding the interest paid for pre-construction period ie, pre-emi. When the exemption is claimed after construction, the ceiling amount is 1.5 lakhs for interest part for self occupied house. Does this ceiling include the 20% share of pre-emi or the 20% share of pre-emi is exempted over and above the 1.5 lakhs, since that amount actually was paid during a different financial year.

Dear Mr Pon,
The subject provided an interesting reading. I agree with Mr. Rajiv Chawla regarding the 1.5 lakhs ceiling for self occupied houses. Home loan Interest for Houses rented out are eligible for exemption to the tune of sum paid towards interest part of loan repayment.
