13 April 2018 In the Budget speech of FEB 2017 Finance Minister levied TDS on rent paid over & above Rs.50000.
I being a salaried person getting HRA over Rs. 10,00,000
In the last FY I had taken two property on rent making payment of Rs. 240000 * 2 = 480000 for one FOR THE MONTH April 2017 & May 2017 & Rs.48000 * 10 = 480000 for second property FOR THE MONTH June 2017 to March 2018. Hence paying total rent of Rs.960000.
Please advise me
1. Am I liable to deduct TDS u/s 10(13A) as in total I had paid Rs. 80000 per month.
2. Will I get Deduction for HRA for whole amt of rent paid or for rent paid for one of the property.

13 April 2018 1. No as payment is made below Rs.50000 to a single person. 2. Only for a single house used for your residence.
