HRA Exemption / Section 80GG Calculator — FY 2025-26 (AY 2026-27)
Educational tool — not a filed computation. This assumes your Basic Salary, DA, HRA and rent stayed constant through the year — if any of these changed (e.g. a salary hike, or a house move mid-year), the exemption should really be computed month-by-month, and the total may differ slightly from this estimate. Also note: this exemption applies under the Old Tax Regime only — it is not available if you opt for the New Tax Regime. Metro list: the 50% (metro) rate here applies to Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai as per the Income-tax Rules in force for FY 2025-26. These rules changed from 1 April 2026 (Income-tax Act, 2025 and its Rules) and the 50% category is reported to cover more cities — please check the current metro list before relying on the metro/non-metro choice for FY 2026-27.

    Disclaimer: This is a self-help planning aid, not a filed computation. It assumes salary components stay constant through the year and does not account for a house move, salary revision, or a period spent in your own house. Section 10(13A) HRA exemption and Section 80GG deduction are available under the Old Tax Regime only. Aggarwal Abhishek & Co. does not certify these figures — please have us review your actual month-wise computation before filing.
