KNOW YOUR TAX BENEFITS ON HOME LOAN

Dear friends
Know your tax benefits on home loan:

1 Home loan borrowers are entitled to tax benefits under Section 80C and Section 24 of the Income Tax Act. These can be claimed by the property's owner.

2 In the case of co-owners, all are entitled to tax benefits provided they are co-borrowers for the home loan too. The limit applies to each co-owner.
3 A co-owner, who is not a co-borrower, is not entitled to tax benefits. Similarly, a co-borrower, who is not a co-owner, cannot claim benefits.
4 Housing companies usually require all co-owners to be joint borrowers to a home loan. Loan providers specify who can be a joint borrower for a home loan.
5 The tax benefit is shared by each joint owner in proportion to his share in the home loan. It's important to establish the share for each co-borrower to claim tax benefits.
6 The certificate issued by the housing loan company, showing the split between principal and interest for the EMIs paid, is required for claiming tax benefits.
