80gg deduction

This query is : Resolved 

07 February 2017 Dear All,

Since this is the deduction available for individuals who are not in receipt of house rent allowance, want to know whether any proof of Rent Paid is strictly required or not for claiming deduction under 80GG

08 February 2017 Dear Zoheb, any deduction claimed in income tax return must be based on supporting evidence. In case, if your case is selected for scrutiny, Assessing Officer will surely ask all the supporting evidences for all deduction u claimed under chapter VI. So, you must preserve the supporting evidence for claiming deduction u/s 80gg. You have to have rent payment receipt and rent agreement hand on with you.

Thanks
