Unlocking the Hidden Potentials: Mortgage Loan Tax Benefits Explained

Unlocking the Hidden Potentials: Mortgage Loan Tax Benefits Explained

Mortgage loans or loans against property are among the oldest forms of credit. They can become your financial pillar when business loans, gold loans, or other secured funding options are out of reach. You can use any property, whether commercial or residential, to receive a mortgage loan to help you transform your dreams into reality. This type of loan gives the lender the security that they need while disbursing you the loan amount that aligns with your goals.

While mortgage loans give you easy access to funds, they also make you eligible for certain tax benefits. This blog will highlight everything you need to know about mortgage loan tax benefits, from mortgage loan tax deductions to the points to remember while applying for them.

Mortgage loan tax benefits

A mortgage loan is a type of secured funding wherein you can pledge your property as security to the lender to receive financial assistance for different purposes. These loans are also advantageous in terms of tax savings. Here are the mortgage loan income tax benefits that you can avail of:

1. If you are a salaried individual who aims to build a new property with the loan amount, you can apply for a mortgage loan tax exemption under section 24 (B) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. You can apply for a tax deduction of up to ₹ 2 lakhs on the interest payments.

2. If you are a business owner willing to invest the loan amount towards the growth of your business, you can also claim mortgage loan income tax benefits. Section 37 (1) allows you to claim tax reduction on the interest and processing fees and other charges related to the loan.

Points to keep in mind while applying for mortgage loan tax benefits

Mortgage loans are beneficial financial aid that can help you access a higher loan amount at a lower interest rate while saving tax. However, below are some points to know before claiming mortgage loan tax benefits:

1. The borrower cannot claim mortgage loan tax benefits if the loan is used for funding education, wedding or other personal events, medical expenses or travel. They can only benefit from tax rebates if the funds are used to build a property or meet business expenses.

2. Section 80 (C) of the Income Tax Act of 1961 allows some tax benefits only when you have an existing home loan. Those tax benefits are not applicable on loans against property.
