About the HRA Calculator

The HRA Calculator computes your House Rent Allowance exemption under Section 10(13A) of the Income Tax Act. HRA exemption is the least of three amounts: actual HRA received, rent paid minus 10% of basic salary (plus DA), and 50% of basic for metro cities or 40% for non-metro cities.

Enter your basic salary, HRA received and monthly rent to instantly see how much of your HRA is tax-exempt and how much is taxable. Salaried employees claiming HRA also need rent receipts as proof — you can generate those free with our Rent Receipt Generator.
