02 January 2014 He can enter into rent agreement with his mother and avail benefit of rent paid.

Please make sure that rent is actually paid through cheque to substantiate the claim.

What i meant, is your parents has entered in to Rent agreement?

So check if it allows for sub renting of property, if nothing is mentioned then u can go as advised by Siddarth.
