How the HRA exemption works
Under Section 10(13A) of the Income Tax Act (old regime), the exempt house rent allowance is the least of three amounts: the actual HRA received, rent paid minus 10% of Basic + DA, and 50% of Basic + DA for metro cities (40% for non-metro). Anything above that is taxable. This is indicative and does not constitute tax advice.
