Can hotel room qualify as hra deduction

Tax queries 806 views 2 replies

 

Dear Sir,

    I am working at Bangalore, but my family stays in my house at Hyderabad. I am staying at a hotel room on a long term basis.  Can my hotel bills be qualified for HRA ? 

The hotel room daily price gives me free wifi and break fast. If I separate them out in my bill, and pay the hotel room charges alone, then would it help ? I could ask my hotel to let out the room to me on a long term basis,

Regards

is there any agreement with hotel

Yes, I can ask hotel folks for an agreement. Should the agreement state rental for any min period? The hotel gives me free breakfast and wifi, and do I need to separate out these payments from the rental agreement?

Does this also imply that I need to rent for the entire month, and cannot stay only for week days? Currently I am traveling every weekend to Hyderabad and recheck in on Mon morning.
