Claim HRA as well as Housing Loan Interest & Principal

This query is : Resolved 

17 April 2009 I have one House. This House are in the name of My Father, My Mother & My Self.
I am a Salary Employee & Company given to me HRA.
I taken a Loan on this House & Pay EMI from My Account.

My Father Has another one House. I stay in this House & Pay the Rent to My Father by Cheque for this House. My Father show this rent Income in his IT Rturn.

My Query is :
(1) Should I Claim HRA as well as Houseing Loan Interest & Principal Amount in My IT Return?
(2) If Rent paid above Rs.10000 p.m. i.e. above Rs.120000 p.a. & my Father has below Exemption Limit should I deduct TDS on Rent?
(3) I Have only Salary Income & there is no Other Income should I get TAN no for Deduct TDS on Rent?

17 April 2009 No, you cannot claim HRA because you have house in your name and you are also claiming housing loan rebate. If you are staying in different city in which you dont have home then you can avail HRA rebate

18 April 2009 1.Yes.
You can definitely claim both HRA and housing loan benefits at the same time.
2.No need to deduct tax and obtain a TAN number because that requirement is for persons having income from business or profession.

18 April 2009 FIrst of all you cannot get HRA and HOusing Loan deduction at the same time.

Because for only one residential house the deductions are availed and one cannot have a rental & a owned house in his name.

It is not allowed in the income tax act.

The laibility to deduct tds is for the persons who are laible to audit there acounts under sec 44AB that is tax audit.

You are not liable to deduct TDS or get a TAN no.


18 April 2009 For your kind information Mr.Sourabh there are two houses as stated by mr.Deepen in the question.
So don't answer in a haphazard manner.
