HRA, Sublease and Rent payment

Unable to resolve this issue.

Can someone help me on this.

Hi @DINESH_UNDAVALLI

To calculate HRA exemption, here is the calculation:

  • Actual House Rent Allowance from employer
  • Actual rent paid less than 10% of basic salary
  • 50% of the basic salary if you live in a metro city or 40% of the basic salary if you live in a non-metro city.

Please enter the correct amount under the HRA section to be able to proceed from Category defect A. For the category defect B/D, it is just a warning message from the ITD. You will be able to proceed to e-filing by ignoring the same.

in this financial year i have stayed in rented house but i was not having an income then and now i have. So can i use those reciepts to avail HRA exemptions.

Hey @Himanshu_Kaushik,

For the months in which you have received the HRA and paid rent, you can claim the exemption. But, you can’t claim HRA for the months when you didn’t receive HRA and have paid rent. However, you can claim a deduction u/s 80GG.
