Sir, A person has worked in two companies namely A and B for 6 Months Each.
April to Sep in A Oct to Mar in B
He has Received HRA allowance from both the companies, how ever the deduction has only been shown by Company B in their form 16 and the company A has not showed any deductions under the head.
Can we claim the amount paid by Company A as HRA while filing ITR 1, is there any supporting documents needed for the same claim ?
(note : the companys salary slip has the HRA component)
HRA can be claimed but deductions will be allowed subject to maximum limit as prescribed. Rent Receipts are required if the rent paid is more then Rs. 1 Lacs pa
