Thanks for your comments. I'm having the rules for IT deduction under a housing loan. The rules say Pre-EMI cannot be claimed now; it can be claimed only after the acquisition of the house. But my concern is, our employee is paying Pre-EMI. His full amount will be disbursed within four months. After that, he will be paying EMI. Now, I don't know how to proceed. Can you please guide me?
