This query is : Resolved
I own a house property which I inherited from my father. The house is tenanted and the tenant is not paying any rent since
1986 and my father filed a suit for eviction. After my father death, I got the decree and put it into execution. My father used to stay at his younger brother's residence on the basis of love and affection. After my father death, my said uncle pressurized me to leave the premises. So I moved it to a rental accommodation. Now I want to know:
1) Whether I am entitled to get Income Tax deduction for rental accommodation/ rent I had paid?
2) Whether I am entitled to get Income Tax deduction for municipal tax which I had paid?
3) Whether I am entitled to get Income Tax deduction for the stamp duties, lawyers fees and miscleneous expenses?
Thanking You
