How this works
Calculate your House Rent Allowance exemption and see how much HRA is taxable. Uses the minimum of HRA received, 50% of basic salary (metro) or 40% (non-metro), and actual rent paid.
The calculator takes 4 inputs (basic salary / month (₹), hra received / month (₹), rent paid / month (₹), city type) and produces 4 outputs (annual hra received, hra exemption, taxable hra, annual rent paid). All formulas are published below — no hidden assumptions, no sign-up wall, no data sent to a server.
Initial result (using default inputs):
- Annual HRA received
- 20000
- HRA exemption
- 20000
- Taxable HRA
- 0
- Annual rent paid
- 264000
