Understanding HRA Calculation and Salary Impact with Employee Absences

Dear Experts,

If an employee is present for 20 days and absent for 10 days, is their Basic salary calculated based on the 20 days worked? Does this have the same effect on their HRA?

For example, if the Basic Salary is 6000.00 and the employee is present for 20 days, the calculation would be 4000/-

What is the HRA Calculation in this scenario? Is it the same i.e., Rs. 3000/- or Rs. 2000/-?

Thanks,

HRA will be calculated proportionately on the total amount of basic, whether he works for 20 days or 30 days. If he works for 30 days and his basic amount is 6000.00/-, then HRA would be 3000.00/- (for metro, 50% on basic) and 2400.00/- (for non-metro, 40% on basic). If he works for 20 days and his basic is 4000.00/-, then HRA would be 2000.00/- (for metro, 50% on basic) and 1600.00/- (for non-metro, 40% on basic).
