What a rent receipt needs for HRA
- Tenant and landlord names, the rented property address and the rent amount.
- The month the rent is for, and the date and mode of payment.
- The landlord's signature. For cash payments above ₹5,000, a revenue stamp signed across by the landlord.
- The landlord's PAN if the rent is more than ₹1 lakh in the year.
Good to know
- HRA exemption is available only under the old tax regime.
- Paying by UPI or bank transfer leaves a record that supports your claim.
- You cannot claim HRA for rent paid to your spouse. Rent paid to parents is allowed if they own the house and show the income in their tax return.
