Basis of Charge
The basis of charge of income under the head ‘income from house property’ is the Annual Value of the property. Annual Value is inherent capacity of the property to earn an income. It is the amount for which the property might reasonably be expected to let from year to year.Income from house property is charged to tax on Notional Basis, as generally tax is not on receipt of
income but on the inherent potential of the house property to generate income.
Conditions to be Satisfied
1. The property must consist of buildings or lands appurtenant to such buildings.
2. The assessee must be the owner of such house property.
3. The property should not be used by the owner thereof for the purpose of any business or profession carried on by him, the profits of which are chargeable to tax.
Computation of Gross Annual Value (GAV)
Particulars Amount Amount
(a) Fair Rent of the House xxx
(b) Municipal Value of House xxx
(c) Whichever is more of (a) and (b) XXX
(d) Standard Rent xxx
Expected Rent Expected Rent [whichever is less of (c) and (d)][whichever is less of (c) and (d)] XXXXXX
Step 1 : Calculate Expected Rent as follows:-
Contd…
Step 2 : Compare Expected Rent & Actual Rent Received (ARR).Where the property or any part thereof is let out,
If ARR is more than ER referred to in Step 1, then, GAV = ARR
If ARR is less than ER and it is due the vacancy of property then, GAV = ARR
If ARR is less than ER not owing to vacancy GAV = ER Note: ARR = Rent Received / Receivable less Unrealized Rent
Net Annual Value (NAV)
Net Annual Value is the sum computed after deducting from Gross Annual Value, the taxes levied by any local authority in respect of the property.
NAV = GAV – Municipal Taxes Paid
Meaning1. Municipal Valuation :- For collecting municipal taxes,
local authorities make a periodical survey of all building in their jurisdiction. Such valuation may be taken as strong evidence representing the earning capacity of a building.
2. Fair Rent of the Property :- Fair rent of the property can be determined on the basis of a rent fetched by a similar property in the same or similar locality.
3. Standard Rent :- Standard rent is the maximum rent which a person can legally recover from his tenant under a Rent Control Act.

Property is considered to be self – occupied where, the property consisting of house or part thereof is
in the occupation of the owner for the purposes of his own residence; or
such property cannot actually be occupied by the owner by reason of the fact that owing to his employment, business or profession carried on at
any other place, he has to reside at that other place in a building not belonging to him.
Contd…
In case of Self-occupied House Property Net Annual Value is always Zero.
Since NAV is zero, the municipal taxes paid by the owner of the house are not deductible.
Deduction Admissible u/s 24
i. Statutory deduction :- 30% of Annual Value (i.e. 30% of NAV)
ii.Interest payable on capital borrowed for acquisition, construction, repair, renewal or reconstruction of house property :- Actual amount of interest for the year on accrual basis plus 1/5th of the interest, if any, pertaining to the pre-
