HRA, RENT FREE ACCOMMODATION AND 80 GG DEDUCTION

This query is : Resolved 

10 December 2008 Dear Sir/Madam,

Can Co pay HRA and simultaneously provide Concessional rent free accommodation(owned or hired by employer) taxable as Perq u/s 17(2)?
In that case can employee claim double deduction of Rent paid to Co in HRA & in 17(2) Perq?
According to my knowledge Co. can not provide 2 at the same time then in that case Co providing rent free accommodation (being not receiving HRA) can employee claim double deduction of Rent paid to Co in calculation of Perq and u/s 80 GG.

Thanks & Regards

Hitesh Kothari
