Understanding Rent Exemption, HRA, and Income Tax Preparation

Hi all,

I have one doubt on rent exemption: can I claim rent allowance if HRA is not received from the employer?

Not possible. You should have the component of HRA to claim rent exemption.

I am Thrimurthulu. I am working at Askon Constructions. I actually downloaded an Excel sheet from CITHR for income tax preparation in 2010-11. I don't know how to calculate HRA. Could you please assist me with the HRA calculation for income tax preparation in 2010-11? Please send me the details.
