Claim hra while submitting it returns

[Jaydeep Choudhari]

Hello Folks,

I have a question regarding, how to avail HRA against rent paid during financial year.

Here is a problem, I am a salaried person & had my Income Tax declaration done at the beginning of the financial year. I had declared house rent of 96000 to my company and throughout the year tax was deducted based on the calculation.

We were told to submit proofs of all the investment by the end of January. While submitting proofs I forgot to add Rent Agreement. Because of which my company has considered minimum rent amount that is 36000 and deducted TDS. Is there any way I can claim full rent paid while filling ITR.

If anyone here know request you to provide procedure for the same, link, explaining how to do it would do.

Thanks, Jaydeep
