Frequently asked questions

What should a rent receipt include?

A useful rent receipt names the tenant and the landlord, states the rent amount and the period it covers, gives the property address and the payment mode, and ends with a landlord signature line. This tool lays out all of those for you.

How do I use rent receipts for an HRA or tax claim?

Salaried employees in India usually submit monthly rent receipts to their employer to claim House Rent Allowance (HRA) exemption. Generate one receipt per month for the year, and add the landlord PAN, which is generally required once annual rent crosses the reporting threshold (about Rs 1,00,000).

Why is the landlord PAN field there?

Indian tax rules ask for the landlord PAN on rent receipts when total annual rent is large enough to report. The PAN line only appears on the receipt when you fill it in, so leave it blank if it does not apply to you.

Can I generate a whole year of receipts at once?

Yes. Set the number of months and the tool produces that many consecutive receipts, advancing the period and the date received by one month each time, so you get a clean set for the full year.

Is my data sent to a server?

No. Every receipt is built entirely in your browser with JavaScript, so the tenant, landlord and payment details you type are never uploaded or stored.

Is a self-generated rent receipt valid?

The format here matches what employers and tax filings expect, but a receipt is only valid once the landlord acknowledges the payment, so have them sign it. For large amounts a revenue stamp is sometimes added for cash payments.
