HRA exemption – 2 Rental Houses

POSTED BY Jha ON May 20, 2013 2:10 pm ONE COMMENT

Dear All

One of my friend is transferred to Delhi and he has taken a new rental house in Delhi. Also maintaining the Rental house in Bglore. He will continue to rent 2 houses at Delhi & Bglr.

Pl. clarify that “Is it possible for him to claim IT benefits on HRA for both Delhi & Bglr houses simultaniously for the enitre year”.

Regards, Jha M

    Dear Jha, the answer is NO. Only the house where your friend is living as his primary residence, ‘ll be available for tax benefit. As he is working in Delhi & residing in Delhi, the Delhi house rent ‘ll be eligible for tax benefit.

    Thanks

    Ashal
