Salary deducted without considering house rent

This query is : Resolved 

23 September 2013 Sir,

In our companies salary package,salary does not split as Basic+DA+HRA+other allowance. But I have pay 6000/month as rent. My employer does not consider this and he calculate tds for my gross salary.
I know HRA calculation for IT
1- 40% of salary
2-actual rent-10% salary
3-Actual HRA
But in my case what to do if there is no HRA in my salary package. Can I deduct my actual rent from my salary?

Please help me to reduce my tax burden and kindly give a detailed note about it.


23 September 2013 Dear Jaseem,

Unless and until, you are in receipt of HRA, you cannot claim benefit for the rent paid. However, you can claim benefit under Section 80GG.

24 September 2013 Thank you sir,

Sir I have one more doubt,

Can I deduct 800 p.m as my conveyance expense? Though in my salary package conveyance allowance not include, I have spend around 1200 as my conveyance expense.

Kindly advice me


24 September 2013 Dear Jaseem,

If your salary structure doesnt provide for travel allowance, then you cannot claim it.
