Hello Seniors, I am currently studying HR through correspondence and need your help on a topic I am confused about. Can the HRA be any percentage of the basic/gross salary? I mean, can an employer pay, say, 10% or maybe 15% of the gross salary as HRA, or does it have to be a minimum of 40% of the basic pay for non-metros and 50% for metros? I am so confused about this, so please help. Hoping for a reply soon.
