The deduction can only be claimed when the construction of the house is complete or the possession is received by the individual. The income tax act does not specify clearly that deduction will be available only for loans from specified banks. On the other hand repayment of the principal on a home loan borrowed from friends or relatives can’t be claimed as a deduction under this section. For Example: “Mr. A purchases a house for Rs 10 lakh. He took this loan from his relative Mr. V for the purchase of this property. The loan is repayable in 10 equal installments with an interest of Rs 5% per annum. He repaid the principal of Rs 1 lakh and an interest of Rs 50000 for the financial year 2021-22.” “Mr. A is eligible for a deduction under Section 24 for interest repayment of Rs 50000. But he can’t claim a deduction under Section 80C for the principal repayment as the deduction is not available for the repayment of the loan from friends or relatives.” Conclusion From the above discussion, it can be seen that even for simple things such as personal loans that are received or given to friends or relatives, there are various restrictions and regulations that everyone should be aware of.
