Hi All,
My employer does not give me HRA or DA. Sine my Basic salary is a little more, I am missing on a massive tax exemption on HRA.
Can I file my returns with HRA declared along with rent receipts even though HRA/DA is not show on my pay component??
Please help.
No you cannot do that, as the HRA component does not forms part of your salary. However you can claim deductin u/s 80GG of I-T Act, as the persons not receiving HRA can claim the exemptino under the said section.
the detailed section is as per the link below:
