26 February 2011 Mr. X gets self lease house from his employer for Rs. 20,000 per month and employer charges Rs. 5,000 per month from Mr. X

Mr. X will show house property income of Rs 2,40,000 (20,000 * 12) in his ROI.

Will he get deduction of Rs 60,000(5,000 *12)from his house property income?

Further employer will charge perquisite tax on self lease house as :-
15% of salary - rent recovered from employee.

I want to know 2 things:-
(a) Whether perquisite tax is correct?
(b) Will Mr. X get deduction of Rs. 60,000 from his house property income?
