As per sec 10(13A) of income tax act,HRA will be available up to the minimum of the following three options:
1.Actual HRA received from employer
2.Actual house rent paid by employee minus 10% of basic salary
3.50% of basic salary if employee live in metro city or 40% of basic salary if employee live in non metro city.
And employee can claim exemption of HRA if he stays in rented house & is in receipt of HRA from his employer.
So, as per above applicable sec you cannot claim exemption of HRA.
