Hi Namitha

Exemption cannot be claimed during contruction, for claiming you need to occupy the house. Basically one has to provide possession certificate & completion certificate to get exemption for 1st time.

But after possession pre emi can we claimed in 5 next years but again this cannot exceed max of 2L.
