You will have to file ITR2 in order to show income from home property and to claim home loan interest benefit. Read more here about Filing income tax return online.

Only 70% of the rental income is taxable as per current law as 30% is deducted towards maintenance and other expenses.

There is no upper limit on home loan interest deduction, in case the properties is let-out. You will get rebate for whole interest paid during the year. Please check your home loan yearly account statement for interest component.
