How to claim hra in income tax returns?

Hi,

My employer has not considered rent receipts for 3 months in the financial year and so the amount deducted at TDS was more.Now how do I claim that HRA while filing returns?

It does not reflect in the Form-16 as well.

Can you please advise me on this in detail on how to include this in the returns and any special precautions that need to be taken care of .

if i claim the HRA while e filing it will contradict the form-16 details.

How to claim the HRA and what documents do i need to submit while filing returns?

According to me you should approach your HRD and request them to file revised TDS return after considaring your 3 Month Rent.

Based on this you can file your it return before filing return you should get its proper working from HRD.

you can claim that hra in your return directly. just deduct the amt of hra eligible for deduction and then enter the net amt in your return. no prb even if it differs from form16. you dont need to submit any document with return.
