Jointly-owned property is held by two or more people—whether spouses, business partners, friends, or family members. It’s a smart tax move since rental income, property taxes, home loan interest, and principal repayment are shared among co-owners.
Each co-owner can claim home loan interest u/s 24(b) and principal repayment u/s 80C.
Prerequisites to claim tax benefits
- You must be a co-owner of the property, and a co-borrower for the loan, if any
- The construction of the property must be complete
