1. If total salary is say, 3 lakhs PA. 10% of salary will be 30K.

So,  "Actual rent paid less 10% of salary "  will be 36k-30k = 6K in first instance, & 60k-30k = 30K in second case.

2. Yes, 40% of salary is max limit for these cities.

3. Yes, lower deduction than actual available, can be claimed.

RAMBJIA JI IS RIGHT ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,BUT KINLDY NOTE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 1. YOU SHOULD CALCULATE HRA AGAINST B.S. , IF YOU GROOS SALARY IS DIFFERENCE FROM B.S…………….. 2. HRA = ACTUAL PAID HRA -10% B.S. …………………BUT LIMIT IS FOR METRO CITY 50% AND OTHER CITY 40% OF B.S. …………….GOOD LUCK!
Govt employee claim oftenly receive 10% HRA of their basic but they claim tax deduction full rent
