If you are a salaried taxpayer claiming HRA deduction, watch out.
If
you are a salaried taxpayer claiming HRA (house rent allowance) deduction,
watch out. The central government has lowered the exemption limit for reporting
the rent received.
Salaried taxpayers claiming HRA exemption and paying a rent of over Rs 1 lakh per year have to give landlord's PAN (permanent account number).
Till now, if the total rent paid was less than Rs 15,000 a month there was no need to submit the landlord's PAN details. The new rule effectively lowers the rent limit from Rs 15,000 a month to Rs 8,333 per month for claiming HRA exemption without making any disclosures.
