I think, you wont get any exemption under HRA, and rule clearly says least of the three... so,as least of the three is a negative figure,which means no exemption under this act...

Yes, you will not get any HRA exemption, I agree with Meghdoot.
I am 80% sure.....
Mr. Rajarajan, its sad to tell u that, u wont be getting any exemption for HRA in this case because the provisions of HRA is as follows
The details about the HRA exemption in described under Section 10 (13A) of the Income Tax act 1961. The following are the three conditions to eligible for HRA exemption:
- HRA must be included in your salary component
- You are staying in the rented house
- Your rent is more than 10% of your salary
HRA Limit for Tax Exemption
There is certain provisions to calculate the HRA amount you are eligible to claim as the tax benefits. Use the following three conditions to calculate the HRA and least of the following three can be claimed as the tax ememption:
- The amount received as HRA from the
- 40% of salary. It is 50% of salary if you are staying in any of the four cities: Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai or Kolkata.
- Rent paid minus 10% of salary
As the exemtion is for least of the above, and least is 0 (ZERO) so you wont be getting any exemption.
