it is 40% of basic salary for non metro and 50% of basic salary for metro cities...your HRA and actual rent paid also need to consider..

The deduction of rent can claimed under 2 sections viz 10(13A) and 80GG.
U/s 10(13A) - If the person is in receipt of HRA.
The deduction is least of following:
1)50% of salary(if residing in metros) or else 40%.
2)HRA received.
3)Rent Paid - 10% of Salary.
Salary = Basic + DA(part which forms part of retirement benefits) + commission on turnover achieved by employee.
U/s 80GG - If the person is not in receipt of HRA.
1)25% of GTI
2)2000/- per month
3)Rent paid - 10% of GTI.
GTI = Normal GTI - LTCG u/s 112, STCG u/s 111A - lottery income - all other deductions under chapter VIA.
U/s 10(13A) - If the person is in receipt of HRA.
