If actual rent paid is lower than 10% of basic salary, can I take the least of the other two conditions ( i.e actual HRA received or 50 % of Basic+DA) or I get not exemption under this section.

I think, you wont get any exemption under HRA, and rule clearly says least of the three... so,as least of the three is a negative figure,which means no exemption under this act...

Mr. Rajarajan, its sad to tell u that, u wont be getting any exemption for HRA in this case because the provisions of HRA is as follows
As the exemtion is for least of the above, and least is 0 (ZERO) so you wont be getting any exemption.
