As such no deduction is allowed from salary income, accordingly house rent is not allowed to be deducted from Salary income and full salary is taxable. However, if you are receiving HRA (House Rent Allowance) you can claim exemption of same in following manner :
Least of the following is exempt - Rent paid over 10% of salary (in your case Actual rent paid-39051) - 40% of salary (40% of 390507) - Actual HRA Received.
