Dear All, Can anyone help me in understanding the HRA calculation? How much percent of HRA is exempt from Tax calculation. Regards, Gayatri

Hi,
The actual HRA you will be entitled to will be the least of the following.
- The actual amount of HRA received.
- 40% of salary. This increases to 50% if you are renting out the house in Delhi Mumbai,Chennai or Kolkata
- Rent paid minus 10% of salary (basic component + dearness allowance)
The HRA that does not get exempted is taxed.
For example.
Assumptions
HRA per month = Rs 15,000
Basic monthly salary = Rs 30,000
Dearness Allowance = Nil
Monthly rent = Rs 12,000
Rental accommodation is in Mumbai.
Exemption
Actual amount of HRA = Rs 15,000
50% of salary = 50% x (30,000 + 0) = Rs 15,000
Actual rent paid - 10% of salary = Rs 12,000 - [10% of (30,000 + 0)] = 12,000 - 3,000 = Rs 9,000
Rs 9,000 being the least of the three amounts will be the exemption from HRA. The balance HRA of Rs 6,000 (15,000-Rs 9,000) is taxable

Dear All,
My salary is 30000 per month and paying 4000 rent per month.
Our company doesn't give us HRA or TA or DA, gives straight salary 30000.
So how my tax benefits will be calculated for HRA?
Thanks

Hi Gayatri
HRA is max upto 50% of Basic in Metros & 40% in non-metros.
An illustration:
Your Basic - 10,000
In Metros, HRA allowed - 5000
Tax exempted = Rs.5000 (or actual rent paid, which ever is lower) minus 10% of your basic. i.e. Rs.4000/- per month is tax exempted (or actual rent paid minus 10% of basic if the rent is lesser than HRA permissible)
Similar way, HRA exemption for non-metros
Hope it clears your doubt
