Is rent agreement is mandatory for hra exemption. I found reference on site : https://www.caclubindia.com/experts/is-rent-agreement-is-mandatory-for-hra-exemption-1119349.asp
But I want to check if it still holds true ? Do we need to submit Rental Agreement mandatorily for claiming HRA ?

Rental agreement is not mandatory if you give rental receipts is more than sufficient to claim HRA benefits and owner PAN number if it is more than 8000/- PM

Yes , it is what my impression is. But my HR is asking specifically for registered rental agreement. I have notarized agreement and he is not accepting it. How to convince him about the true rules ?
