Hello,
In India, the maximum permissible House Rent Allowance (HRA) is not strictly defined by a specific percentage of the gross salary, as it can vary based on company policies and individual employment agreements.
1. HRA Percentage: Typically, HRA can range from 40% to 50% of the basic salary, depending on whether the employee resides in a metro city or a non-metro city. For cities like Ahmedabad in Gujarat (which is not classified as a metro) (geometry dash lite), HRA is usually around 40% of the basic salary.
2. Tax Exemption: When calculating tax exemptions, the HRA received is subject to certain conditions, and the exempt amount is determined by:
- Actual HRA received:
- Rent paid minus 10% of basic salary
- 50% of the salary (for metro cities) or 40% (for non-metro cities)
3. Company Policy
Discretionary: Ultimately, the percentage of HRA is determined by the employer's compensation structure. Companies may have their own policies that might allow for higher or lower HRA percentages.
