Hi, I own a flat in Ranchi which is self occupied and live in rent in Gurgaon.I claim tax benefit on intrest paid and claim HRA.Now I am planning to buy one flat in Kolkata and put it on rent. Can someone clarify if i can still claim HRA and how would the income from rent and exemption treated?

You can claim HRA exemptions and Housing loan interest benefits.

Rent from Kolkata property will be computed under the head INCOME FROM HOUSE PROPERTY

hra can be claimed till the time period you live in rented property. income from rent of kolkata property will come under income from house property.
Yes, you can continue to claim HRA as well as 30% standard deduction from rent received from Kolkata flat.
