HRA Exemption:- HRA (House Rent Allowance) is a component of salary that is exempt from income tax under certain conditions. To claim HRA exemption, an individual must be receiving HRA as part of their salary and must be paying rent for their accommodation.
If the pensioner is not receiving HRA, they should mark all allowances as "N" as done in this case.
Since the pensioner is not claiming HRA, they should not be required to provide details about the city or rent paid.
If the form is still asking for this information, it might be a glitch or an incorrect assumption by the form.
