30 March 2011 If you had purchased new house not at your place of employment, then you can claim both the deduction.Since there is a condition which was mentioned for claiming HRA that Assessee , His spouse, or HUF in which he is a memeber does not own any accomodation in such other place and he have to reside in a house for rent

However, you had purchased and constructed a house in or near to the place of employemnt there is no question of claiming HRA..
