Pre EMI interest and Interest on EMI – Tax benefits

Sir,

1.I have taken a loan of Rs 25,00,000 from govt loaning agency which does not have a provision of EMI before possession.

2. I paid a total pre EMI interest of 2,15,000 from Aug 10 to Apr 12. Thereafter EMI from May 2012. Paid an interest of about 2,00,000 in this FY. I have taken possession of my house.

3. Certificate from agency mentions the 2 values of interest.

4. How do I take the max permissible tax benefit and what exactly is the ruling on this. My impression was I will get a benefit of rebate on 1,50,000 plus 1/5th of the pre-emi interest.
