Hi,

I am having a home loan taken out in 2007 and am able to get tax exemption under both section 24 u/s (for interest) and 80c (for principal) until March 2011 as my property was under construction. However, I have now rented out the house (Rs. 1,56,000 per annum) and am receiving rent from this month, April 2011. So, I need to declare this income on my tax sheet. My employer has requested the following declarations: Deduction Interest u/s 24: Rs. 1,76,000 Deduction Repairs u/s 24: Rs. 1,56,000

My Questions: 1) Why should the income from the house be declared under "Repairs"? 2) What will be the tax exemption for my home loan interest? Will I receive full exemption for Rs. 1,76,000 or will it be restricted to Rs. 1,50,000? 3) Is it such that only (Rs. 1,76,000 - Rs. 1,56,000) will be tax exempted?

Please address my queries.

you will get exemption for Rs.1.50L. If you don’t want to show your rent income in repairs, you will have to show it as income and pay the tax. pon
