Tax liability

Me and my wife are joint owner of a property and I am getting Income tax benifit against the loan taken for this property.

Can I claim the HRA exemption for Income tax even when the above property is given on rent as I am living in a leased accomodation and paying rent.

What is my Tax Liability. My wife is house wife and do not have any source of income.

Thanks

you can claim HRA claim provided you have to show the house property income as it letout. Also you can get benefit of interest on borrowed capital for housingloan.

You may claim your HRA, and show the rent income in your wife’s name and give her NOC that you are not claiming your Housing Loan Interest and she can claim it 100%, and she may not be liable to pay Income Tax for this.
