Recently a social media user posted a query wherein he outlined his problems with claiming the house rent allowance (HRA), which he was facing due to an adamant landlord, who was refusing to share his PAN details with him.
“I want to claim tax exemption for my rent paid. But despite my yearly rent being higher than Rs. 1 lakh, my landlord is not sharing his PAN details. The landlord tells me that he does not need to share his PAN with me. I have claimed rent exemption without giving his PAN. Will it be a problem for me in future?” he asked.
