How to Calculate HRA from Basic Salary

HRA is reduced tax liability of Assessee from his salary, But he fulfills some condition i.e. stays in rented House. 


the amount reduced from tax liability of the HRA is the lower of the following amounts:
  1. Actual HRA Paid
  2. Actual rent paid less 10% of basic salary
  3. 50% of basic salary if he resides in the metro city; 40% if his residence is in any other city
Note- Metro city -Delhi, Chennai, Kolkata, or Mumbai

HRA Calculation with Example


A salaried individual, Mr.X, who resides in Kolkata. He lives in a rented house and monthly rent of Rs.15,000pm*12=1,80,000
Basic Salary Rs.40000 PM *12=4,80,000
HRA Rs. 10000pm*12=1,20,000
Exempt HRA is the lower of the following amounts

Actual HRA component of salary:                              - Rs.120000
50% of his basic salary, as he stays in Kolkata:         - Rs.480000*50%=240000
Actual rent paid - 10% of basic salary:                       - Rs.180000-(Rs.480000*10%)=132000


Since Rs.1,20,000 is the lowest value above, this is the amount of tax-exemption Mr. X can receive on HRA. The balance of the HRA amount received will be taxed.
