Dear Sir

 

As you are a retire employee than you are not eligible for Deduction under section 10 of income tax act 1961.

But as you mention you can claim deduction under section 80TTA for interest income upto 10000 on saving account,.

And Depreciation under section 57 of income tax act for income from other sources (Rent Received)

 

Note:- For claiming Depreciation under section 57 of income tax act 1961, the let out property should be registered in your name. (you should be legal owner of that property)
