How do I make a rent receipt for HRA?

A rent receipt should show the tenant and landlord names, the property address, the rent amount, the month it covers, and the landlord's signature. If annual rent exceeds ₹1 lakh, the landlord's PAN is required. This tool generates one receipt per month for your chosen period.

Do rent receipts need a revenue stamp?

A revenue stamp is usually affixed on receipts for cash payments above ₹5,000. Payments made by bank transfer or cheque generally don't need one.

Is the landlord's PAN mandatory?

Yes, if the total rent you pay in a year is more than ₹1 lakh, you must report the landlord's PAN to claim HRA exemption.

Using these for HRA

To claim HRA exemption under the old regime, employers usually ask for rent receipts. Each receipt should name the tenant and landlord, the property, the rent and the month. Affix a revenue stamp on cash receipts above ₹5,000, and include the landlord's PAN if your yearly rent tops ₹1 lakh. Work out the exempt amount with the HRA calculator.

Frequently asked questions

How many receipts do I need?

Usually monthly, or at least quarterly, covering the period you're claiming — generate all twelve at once here.

Can I edit the wording?

Generate them, then print or save as PDF; for custom wording, paste into a document editor first.

Is this legally sufficient?

Receipts support an HRA claim but aren't proof of a tenancy on their own; keep your rent agreement and payment records too.
