Dear experts,

(HRA is received)

if rent is paid by employee, but not mention in form 16 for deduction by employer.... then can employee claim deduction for rent paid... or he have to file according to form 16 without RENT paid deduction?

if the assessee is in receipt of hra, he can't claim deduction under section 80GG. AFTER DEDUCTING HRA DEDUCTION AND ANY OTHER DEDUCTION (PROFESSIONAL TAX AND TRANSPORT ALLOWANCE?, SHOW THE NET SALARY AS THE TOTAL INCOME DIRECTLY
