AS SAY IN DISCUSSION IN ‘BARTWAN PATRIKA’ TAX RELAXATION CAN BE GET IF (BASIC+DA)*1.2<30000 THEN HOUSE RENT IN ONE YEAR MINUS THE AFORESAID AMOUNT IS RELAXED IN TAX WITHOUT SUBMISSION OF RENT BILL. IS IT TRUE? WHAT IS THE g.o......
As per rule 10(13A) some exemption of income tax may be availed due to excess payment of House Rent from the actual House Rent Received from the employer. For having such kind of exemption the employee must furnish rent receipt along with a calculation sheet to the employer. I shall try to post a calculation sheet in excel to help you in this regard. Please provide me some time as I am busy now a days.

I dont think so.
Say, you reside in a rented house, of which the rent paid is Rs. 4000/- per month i.e. Rs. 48,000/- annually.
Say, your (Basic + DA + Special Allowance + other allowance e.g. NPP) = 2,00,000/- annual.
and say, you receive HRA in a year is Rs. 24,000/-
The minimum of the following amounts shall be Rs. 28,000/-
1. HRA received = Rs. 48,000/-
2. House Rent Paid – 10% of (Basic + DA + Special Allowance + other allowance e.g. NPP) = Rs. 48,000 – Rs. 20,000 = Rs. 28,000/-
3. 40% or 50% of (Basic + DA + Special Allowance + other allowance e.g. NPP) = 1,00,000/-
So, while calculating I.Tax an amount of Rs. 28,000 will be deducted from your gross salary.
The above calculation is based on rule 10(13A) of Income Tax Act. To get this exemption rent receipt must be submitted.
