hi,

My office is not paying any hra componets. i have only basic+SP allowance. in this case how much i can show HRA for income tax file filling.

It is believed that you are not working on contractual terms.

Ask your company to provide you the salary slip with complete break up of your salary, and a form 16 accordingly.

Your CA and Income Tax Lawyer can guide you on how to write your expenses and exemptions, and the liablity on the part of the company as well.

The limits pertaining to HRA have been mentioned.
