    If u want to include Int. on HL, then u should use ITR 2 & NOT ITR 1. In row 2 fill it as NIL. Fill the interest details in sch. HP & CYLA and then take it to Part B -TI.
    The form itself suggests in brackets as to from where a figure is to be taken. Just follow it.

    Home loan interest deduction comes under Income From House property, which is schedule HP. You must file ITR-2.

    For home loan interest deduction under section 24(b) and capital deduction under 80C, read.
