You can't. They may raise query and ask you to submit proofs, rent receipts. If you cant provide then it will be penalized.

If you are working from home, just send some money as rent to your parents and get a rental agreement or receipts. You can have them as a proof.

Notice on HRA claims?

Analyst

Asking for a friend who is not on GV:

Hi, while submitting HRA proofs, I forgot to attach the previous rent agreement which covered the first 5 months of the year. As a result, the team has come back and only approved hra claim for the period covered in the current agreement. They are saying there is no way for us to reupload additional proofs (previous agreement) for company-level hra processing, and that we should claim these remaining hra savings while filing taxes. Has anyone done so before? What is the process? Please advise, thank you.

Income- tax Return

My PG rent is 11x the amount, but the HRA allotted to me from the company side is 17x, if I show 17x in papers, would it cause any trouble to the PG owner, I heard they would get notice. Is it okay to do so, please help here.

HRA - Help Needed

I recently started my job(2023 grad), a lot of senior folks at my firm are (indirectly) stating that they fake hra. Is it safe? Should I also consider doing it? Let's say I live in city A and my parent live in city B can I give my parents id as landlord?

Tax query

Seems like since last year the focus of government has shifted from actually making beneficial policies to enable innovation and growth of India to just collecting taxes blindly. 

They just want to harvest tax in as many ways possible and kill the middle class person.

First it was crypto. 

Then us salaried individuals started receiving notices. 

Then they levied 28% GST on online gaming. 

Now they are also checking proofs for HRA allowance and other stupid stuff which wasn't done before. 

I was wondering why there is a sudden increase in such incidents? Is the government hiding something? Are they running out of money?

Or are they just smoking weed just like us and making stupid rules?

Nirmala tai is looting us

This government’s primary intention is to collect more and more taxes in whatever mean’s possible. They don’t give a f**k about anything. And then will brag every month/quarter about record GST collection! This government is pathetic to say the least! No accountability and arrogance is at its peak. We have come to a point where we can’t even question the government otherwise you will be termed as anti national.

I just started my first full time job and will be filing ITR for 1st time next year, no one in my family has been in high tax slab previously so not much experience from there :D

Some questions:

- Almost 50% of my base pay is getting used in paying EMIs (Mostly mortgage) of my family, nothing is on my name, all on father's name, is there a way to claim this in deduction ?

- We have our own house in a tier 3 city and I'm getting 30k/month as HRA, what will be safe HRA amount to claim ?

- Can we claim any other expenses in deduction ? Leave travel allowance seems useless to me as I'm working remotely.

- Which tax regime do you prefer ? New or old ?

I could have done investments to save taxes but nothing is left after all the expenses and nothing on my name 😛

Advice needed for filing tax

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I’ve used a persons PAN and its name for claiming HRA of 12k but it get rejected saying name mismatch and now I don’t have the actual PAN to tally as i’ve relocated. So now can i change to some other landlord’s PAN and Name for the whole year and submit it with 12k claim or new PAN with 8333 as it will be less than 1lac yearly so they won’t verify the name change. What shod i do pls suggest?
Also if I’ll not provide submit any info for HRA will i get the tax rebate for 1 lac yearly?

Just a question related to claiming HRA,What is the best practice of claiming maximum HRA,for example if basic salary is 100000,then company pay HRA as 50k,which is almost very difficult to claim. How are people.claiming that legally.Thanks

Since the tax season is upon us, I wanted to check how do you folks handle tax related things? 
1. What are some tricks you use for tax saving?
2. Do you work with a CA or handle taxes yourself?
3. For folks having salary>30lpa- which tax regime have you chosen?
