Most women today play an active part in the home buying decision. Single or married, these women constitute about 30 per cent of property purchasers in urban India. Did you know women have certain benefits if they purchase a home in India?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some of the advantages woman home buyers have in India:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leading Indian banks typically offer home loans at a lower interest rate to women home buyers. As women are more punctual in paying back loans and less likely to default on payments, banks are also keener on lending to women.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the Narendra Modi government\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newslaundry.com\/2024\/03\/26\/in-modi-govts-housing-for-all-83-homes-not-for-landless-poor-lopsided-growth\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Housing for All Mission<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, women should be either co-owners or sole owners of affordable houses. The government decided that this should be so to empower women from low-income households.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In many Indian states, women pay lower stamp duty. In Delhi and Haryana, for instance, stamp duty for women is two per cent lower. Stamp duty for women is often one-two per cent lower than it is for men. So, for many reasons, it is much advantageous for couples to buy their home in the name of the female partner. Even when property is gifted to the female partner, the stamp duty will be lower. You can get discounts in stamp duty by jointly registering property in the name of the women partner.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also Read:<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.trimurty.com\/blog\/home-loan-benefits-women\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Home Loan Benefits to Women\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Women are also eligible of a tax deduction of Rs 2 lakh on the interest rate paid on home loans. If you and your husband are co-applicants of the home loan, both of you will be able to claim tax deductions on the interest rate paid, if the property is let out.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Women are also allowed to deduct the interest rate paid against the mortgage loan against the net rental value when they rent out their home.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In poverty alleviation schemes in Indian states, women\u2019s names are included in the land titles of the plots that the government allocates to low-income households.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Women in India have multiple financial advantages when buying a home, from reduced loan rates to tax benefits.
