Create compliant rent receipts in less than 60 seconds and keep your HRA paperwork stress-free.
For most salaried Indians, House Rent Allowance (HRA) is the single biggest deduction after investments under Section 80C. The Income-tax department accepts only stamped rent receipts as proof of your rent payments.
A signed receipt is written acknowledgement that your landlord has collected the money. If a dispute arises later—about arrears, maintenance charges or security deposits—your receipts become your strongest defence.

You can claim the least of the following three amounts as HRA exemption under Section 10(13A):
Basic salary: ₹40,000/month
Actual HRA: ₹18,000/month
Rent paid: ₹16,500/month
Metro city: Yes (Delhi)
Exemption = least of:
So ₹1,50,000 is tax-free; the balance HRA (₹66,000) is taxed.
Proper rent receipts ensure you can claim your full eligible exemption.
Ask your landlord for Form 60 and keep it on file as an alternative to PAN.

Each occupant should have separate receipts showing his/her portion of rent.
Generate two sets of receipts: one for the old amount, one for the new.
You can still claim up to ₹5,000 per month under Section 80GG using the same receipts.
