Thankfully, home loans are there to the rescue. It also helps you save on taxes.
You can even go a step further and opt for a joint home loan if you want to aim bigger and share responsibilities without overburdening yourself. Joint home loans help you get a larger loan amount sanctioned while sharing the responsibility of repayment.
One of the most lucrative benefits of taking a joint home loan is that they help you save tax while investing on fixed assets. Section 80C and Section 24 of the Income-tax regulation makes you eligible for tax rebates under home loans.
Claim on Interest deduction
You can claim up to Rs. 2 lakhs with regard to the interest paid for a home loan taken on a self- occupied house. In case of a joint home loan, each applicant can claim their benefit separately. Hence two people taking a joint home loan are exempted from paying a total amount of Rs. 4 lakh. The total interest paid on loan will be allocated in the ratio of the ownership of both the parties involved. However, the total interest claimed by the co-applicants can never exceed the total interest amount paid on loan.
As per the Section 80C of the Income Tax regulations, each co-borrower can claim a maximum deduction of up to Rs. 1.5 lakhs on the repayment of the principal amount. Thus for two people in a joint home loan, the total claimable amount of deduction will be Rs. 3 lakhs provided they are co-owners of the property and each of them is contributing to the home loan repayment. Remember, the amount claimed can never exceed the total amount of the principal itself.
Under Section 80C, any payments that the borrowers have made for registration and stamp duty are claimable. Given, it can only be made in the year that these registration and stamp duty costs were paid in.
