Section 80EEB — the EV loan deduction at a glance

Section 80EEB lets an individual deduct the interest paid on a loan taken to buy an electric vehicle — up to ₹1,50,000 a year. The loan must be sanctioned by a bank or NBFC between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2023. It is a one-time benefit that continues every year until the loan is fully repaid, and is available only under the old tax regime.

How much tax you save by slab

Your saving equals the eligible deduction (interest paid, capped at ₹1,50,000) multiplied by your highest income-tax slab rate. The higher your slab, the more each rupee of interest saves you.

5% slab₹7,500
20% slab₹30,000
30% slab₹45,000

Worked examples

The deduction is the lower of your actual interest paid and ₹1,50,000. Anything you pay above the cap earns no deduction under 80EEB — though if the EV is used for business, that excess interest can be claimed as a business expense instead.

₹80,000 interest paid
Eligible deduction — min(80,000, 1,50,000)₹80,000
Tax saved @ 30%₹24,000
Unused headroom₹70,000
₹1,80,000 interest paid
Eligible deduction — capped₹1,50,000
Tax saved @ 30%₹45,000
Excess (business expense?)₹30,000
In the second example, interest above ₹1,50,000 is not deductible under 80EEB. If the electric vehicle is used for business or profession, that extra ₹30,000 may be claimed as a business expense under the normal profit computation.

Eligibility & key terms explained

Who can claim

Only an individual taxpayer. Companies, firms, HUFs and other entities cannot claim Section 80EEB. The loan must be in the individual's name.

Loan sanction window

The loan must be sanctioned between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2023 from a bank or a specified NBFC. The sanction date — not the disbursement date — is what matters.

Electric vehicle only

The loan must be for the purchase of an electric vehicle powered solely by an electric motor with a traction battery. Hybrids and petrol/diesel vehicles do not qualify.

One-time, recurring benefit

80EEB is a one-time eligibility tied to a qualifying loan, but you keep claiming the interest each year until the loan is fully repaid, subject to the ₹1.5L annual cap.

Questions people ask

A deduction of up to ₹1,50,000 a year for interest on a loan taken to purchase an electric vehicle, whether a car or a two-wheeler.

No. The section applies only to an electric vehicle, defined as one powered exclusively by an electric motor with traction energy from a traction battery.
