Restriction on set-off of house property loss: excess loss cannot be offset against other heads of income.

The amendment provides that when income from house property yields a loss for an assessment year and the assessee has income under other heads, the assessee shall not be entitled to set off that loss to the extent it exceeds a specified monetary threshold against income chargeable under other heads; this restriction operates notwithstanding sub-sections permitting set-off.
