From the annual value, only the interest on borrowed capital is allowed as deduction under section 24. Maximum Rs. 2,00,000 i.e. Interest paid on Housing Loan is Allowed.

***********************PLEASE NOTE ******************************

2. Municipal Value of Property

year and

his second house property is letout on rent of Rs. 100,000 per year on which Municipal tax of Rs. 2,000 and Housing Loan interest of Rs. 60,000 paid.

(i) Property No. 1 (calculation)

SOP Anuual value = NIL
(-)interest Paid = 50,000
====================
SOP Loss = (50,000)

(ii) Property No. 2 (calculation)

Gross Annual Value = 100,000
(-)Muncipal Tax = 2,000
======================
Net Annual Value (NAV) = (98,000)

Less:Deduction under Section 24
    30% of NAV = 29,400
     interest = 60,000
=====================
Letout HP Gain = 8,600

Thus TAx Payable by Mr. A on his both house property is Nil since,
SOP Loss (Property no.1) = (50,000)
HP Gain (Property no.2) = 8,600
Difference = 41,400 loss


***********************PLEASE NOTE ******************************
DEDUCTION under section 80C is also available for principal amount of loan repaid by you, if Housing loan repayment statement received from Bank states actual amount of interest and Principal repaid by you.


====================
Residential House:
====================

'A' residential house is 'One' residential house

Two of the Karnataka High Court Judgements have been nullified by this amendment. In case of sale of residential property or any other long term capital asset (other than a residential property) which result in capital gains, then such gains will be tax exempt if it is reinvest within specified time in another residential property.

Much disputes arose whether such capital gains have to be reinvested in one residential property or could be inested in more than one residential property. Two relatively recent Karnataka High Court Judgements held that there is no restriction to reinvest in just one residential house and it could be invested in more than one as the article 'a' used in sections 54 and 54F does not denote a numerical value. Further, the SLP filed by the tax department was also dismissed by the supreme court thereby making the Karnataka High Court Judgements law of Land.

Now this benefit has been taken away clarifying that the reinvestment has to be in just one residential property and not more than one. The capital gains tax exemption will be limited to only one residential property. if two or more house properties are procured or constructed then the one with maximum value should be claimed as tax exemption.
