You can claim HRA exemption on the lowest of the three:
The amount of HRA your employer, pays you.
If you live in a metro city, 50% of your salary is eligible for HRA deduction. If you live in a non-metro city, 40% of your salary is eligible for HRA deduction.
10% of your basic pay minus the total rent you pay.
You can submit your rent receipts to the employer.
