Dear Queriest,
I suppose your query is on HRA exemption under the IT Act and not on HRA. If a husband is getting HRA and the wife pays rent, in this case, the husband can claim HRA exemption provided the wife is not claiming the exemption, to my knowledge. However, experts, please make a comment on it.
