About Landlord PAN declarations
According to Circular No. 8/2013 issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), if the annual rent paid by a salaried employee exceeds ₹1,00,000, it is mandatory to provide the landlord's Permanent Account Number (PAN) to the employer to claim House Rent Allowance (HRA) exemption.
However, many landlords in India (particularly in non-metro cities or senior citizens) do not possess a PAN card. In such scenarios, the Income Tax Department allows the employee to claim HRA if they submit:
- A signed declaration from the landlord stating that they do not possess a PAN card.
- A completed Form 60 (for transactions without PAN).
- Verifiable rent receipts (which you can generate for free on our home page).
This declaration must be signed physically by the landlord and handed over to your HR department along with the monthly rent receipts at the time of tax declarations (usually in January/February).
