04-Aug-2014 , 09:37:42 pmas per my view we can not add interest on house loan in cost for capital gain because loan only for financial matter not for cost eg if we purchase a house 10 lakh in cash.than cost is 10 lakh. other hand we purchase house on loan than we say 10lakh cost+5 lakh interest our cost is 15 lakh.but you know each and every case we take benefit of 5 lakh income from house property then can income tax act give double benefit m.no 09910652297

06-Aug-2014 , 01:04:40 pmNO, interest paid on housing loan can not be added to the cost of acquisition. Interest comes in the picture only after acquiring the property. its a event occurring after acquiring the property. Interest can be claimed against house property income.
