If you are staying in rented house then you can claim HRA

any other experts reply.....

For claiming HRA, the woman first needs to have rental agreement, payment of rent etc.... etc.

Secondly, there should be specific reason to stay in rented house, when she already has own HP in same city.

Not in laws
Since house is unfinished, it will not be considered as house property
Yes you can claim if you have rent agreement.
You can't claim HRA as per the information available in the query
