@ mamta... hra should be reduced directly from taxable salary as per your form 16 and then the reduced salary will be mentioned in itr.

Reduced salary after deduction will not match as per form 16. In such case can IT department create an issue?

no.. no issue on such case.. you will just have to prove that you claimed hra. you need to keep those rent receipts for that purpose upto completion of assessment of your income.
