    Section 24 of the Income Tax Act states that if a property is still to be constructed, there will not be any deductions on the interest payment all of those years. The interest for the pre-construction period can be availed for the deduction in the 5 equal installments from the year the construction is complete. So your friend cannot claim any interest deduction for loan paid.
    Regarding which income tax return form to fill :
    There are different Income Tax returns form based on

    Who has to fill (individual, Hindu Undivided Family(HUF), Business etc). Fourth Character in PAN specifies the type of tax-payer. For Individual’s it’s P , HUF it’s H, Firms F etc.

  2. Dear Etaxmentor, your client ‘ll not get interest benefit for the under construction stage for FY 2012-2013. The same can be claimed only after the possession of the flat. So the routine form for him or her ‘ll be ITR-1 for salary + interest income & in case any capital gain is there, it ‘ll be ITR-2.

    Thanks
