• Opt for shorter tenures to reduce overall interest costs.
• Choose EMIs that fit comfortably within your budget.
• Calculate total interest to minimize long-term costs.
• Check for prepayment options without heavy penalties.

ICICI Home Loan Tax Benefits

Home loans offer significant tax benefits under the Income Tax Act, 1961. These benefits apply to both the principal amount and interest paid, making home loans more cost-effective.

Section	Deduction Type	Maximum Deduction Amount	Conditions
80C	Principal Repayment of Home Loan	₹1.5 Lakh per annum	The house property must not be sold within five years of possession.
80C	Payment of Stamp Duty	₹1.5 Lakh per annum	These expenses can only be claimed in the year they are incurred.
24b	Interest Payment on Home Loan	₹2 Lakh per annum	The loan must be taken for purchasing or constructing a house. If constructing a house, the construction must be completed within five years from the end of the financial year in which the loan was taken. If the property is let out (rented), there is no cap on the interest deduction under Section 24(b). This allows property owners renting out their property to claim full interest payments as a deduction.

1. Section 24B – Deduction on Home Loan Interest

What It Is:

• Allows you to claim a deduction on the interest paid on your home loan.

Benefits:

• Self-Occupied Property: Deduct up to ₹2 lakh per year on interest payments.
• Rented Property: No upper limit on the interest amount you can claim.

Example

Category	Amount
Loan Amount	Rs. 70,00,000
Interest Payable Per Year	Rs. 4 Lakhs
Tax Deduction	Rs. 2 Lakhs/ Year
Tax Bracket	30%
Tax Benefits per Year	Rs. 66,000

2. Section 80C – Deduction on Principal Repayment

What It Is:

• Allows deduction on the principal portion of your home loan repayments, up to ₹1.5 lakh per year.

Benefits:

• Reduces your taxable income by the principal amount repaid.
• Also includes stamp duty and registration charges (one-time claim in the year incurred).

Example

Category	Amount
Loan Amount	Rs. 75,00,000
Principal Payable Per Year	Rs. 3.5 Lakhs
Tax Deduction	Rs. 1.5 Lakhs per Year
Tax Bracket	30%
Tax Benefits per Year	50,000

Total Tax Benefits (Section 24B + Section 80C = Rs. 1.16 Lakhs/ Year

3. Joint Home Loans – Double the Benefits

What It Is:

• When two or more people take a joint home loan and are co-owners of the property.

Benefits:

• Section 24B: Each co-borrower can claim up to ₹2 lakh on interest.
• Section 80C: Each can claim up to ₹1.5 lakh on principal repayment.

Who is Eligible to be a Co-Applicant?

• Father/ Mother
• Unmarried Daughter
• Siblings
• Husband/ Wife
  (Minors cannot be considered as co-applicants for a Home Loan)

Example

Category	Co Applicant 1	Co Applicant 2
Tax Deduction under 24B	Rs. 2 Lakhs/ Year	Rs. 2 Lakhs/ Year
Tax Deduction under 80C	Rs. 1.5 Lakhs/ Year	Rs. 1.5 Lakhs/ Year
Tax Deductions/ Year	Rs. 3.5 Lakhs/ Year	Rs. 3.5 Lakhs/ Year
Tax Bracket	30%	30%
Tax Benefits	Rs. 1.16 Lakhs/ Year	Rs. 1.16 Lakhs/ Year

When you opt for a co-applicant on your home loan, the savings can be substantial due to the ability to claim tax deductions separately. For example, with a co-applicant, the total tax savings can amount to ₹2.32 lakhs annually. Here’s how it works:

• EMI Paid per Year: ₹60,000 x 12 = ₹7,20,000
• Money Saved through Tax Deductions: ₹2,32,000
• Net Money Paid after Deductions: ₹7,20,000 – ₹2,32,000 = ₹4.88 lakhs

By utilising this tax benefit, you effectively lower your financial outflow, paying only ₹4.88 lakhs per year instead of the full ₹7.20 lakhs.
