Let us tell you, House Rent Allowance (HRA) is an allowance given to an employee. It is given by the employer to his employee to pay the rent of his house. As per the Income Tax Act, tax exemption on HRA is available under section 10 (13A). Total taxable income is calculated by subtracting HRA from total income. But if the employees live in their house and do not pay rent for any house, then their HRA comes under the tax net.

If the employee has a rent agreement with the landlord, then they get the benefit of tax deduction under HRA. This benefit is given under HRA for up to 50 per cent of basic salary to employees living in metropolitan cities and up to 40 per cent of basic salary for employees living in small towns. Apart from this, even after paying 10 percent of the total annual income in the form of house rent, it also gets its benefit.



If you have paid rent of 15,000 rupees per month or more than one lakh rupees in a year as rent, then it is mandatory to give PAN number of the landlord to get the rebate.
