RentProof — Rent Receipt & HRA Exemption Kit

Twelve print-ready receipts and the exemption worked out to the rupee

Payroll wants twelve months of rent receipts and you have an agreement, a bank statement and no time. RentProof prints the whole year in one go — April to March, numbered consecutively, two to an A4 page, each with the landlord's PAN, the full property address, the amount in words and a revenue-stamp box only where cash rent actually needs one. Then it does the arithmetic most people get wrong: the HRA exemption as the least of three amounts, applying the 50% limit to Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Ahmedabad and Bengaluru under Rule 279 of the Income-tax Rules 2026 for tax year 2026-27 — and to the four old metros only for earlier years. Section 80GG, a landlord no-PAN declaration, a rent summary sheet and a ten-item document checklist come with it. One HTML file on your own device: no sign-up, no monthly fee, no internet needed, and your salary and your landlord's PAN never leave your browser.

The Problem With Rent Receipts

Every January, the same scramble

Payroll asks for twelve months of rent receipts. You have a rent agreement and a bank statement, and nothing that looks like the form they want. So you write receipts by hand, or hunt for a free website that wants your landlord's PAN typed into someone else's server, and then discover the receipt is missing the property PIN code, or the amount in words, or the receipt number payroll insists on.

Meanwhile the HRA calculation itself is quietly wrong for a lot of people. From tax year 2026-27 the 50% limit is no longer "the four metros" — Rule 279 of the Income-tax Rules, 2026 extends it to Hyderabad, Pune, Ahmedabad and Bengaluru as well. Anyone still applying 40% in Bengaluru is leaving exemption on the table; anyone applying 50% in Gurugram is claiming too much and will see it reversed. RentProof gets both the paperwork and the arithmetic right, in one file that never leaves your laptop.

How It Works

Four steps, about ten minutes, once a year

1 · Enter your details once

Financial year, monthly rent, city, your name, the landlord's name and PAN, and the full property address. Everything is reused on all twelve receipts and in every calculation.

2 · Twelve months appear

April to March, numbered consecutively from whatever you choose. Correct any month whose rent differed, or set it to zero for a month you did not live there.

3 · Print, or save as PDF

Two receipts per A4 page, six pages for the year. Get them signed by the landlord and hand them to payroll — or email the PDF.

4 · Check the exemption

The HRA tab shows all three limits, which one decides your exemption, and what stays taxable. Print the working sheet to attach to your declaration.

What You Get

Everything in the ZIP

Twelve rent receipts

One per month of the financial year, each with receipt number, tenant, landlord, landlord PAN, full property address, period, amount in figures and in words using Indian numbering, payment mode, optional bank or UPI reference, date of receipt and a signature block.

The HRA exemption working

Section 10(13A) as the least of three amounts, with each limit shown separately and the deciding one marked. It tells you which limit binds, so you know what to change if the answer surprises you.

The right metro rule for the year

50% for Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Ahmedabad and Bengaluru under Rule 279 from tax year 2026-27; the four old metros only under Rule 2A for earlier years. Choose the year and the app switches.

Section 80GG, for no-HRA salaries

The ₹5,000-a-month cap, 25% of adjusted total income and rent less 10% of income, with the same least-of-three treatment — and an honest refusal if you own a house where you work.

Landlord PAN watch

The annual total is tracked as you type. Cross ₹1,00,000 and the app says the PAN is now required, checks the format, and points you to the no-PAN declaration if there isn't one.

Revenue stamp, only where needed

Cash rent above ₹5,000 a month prints a Re 1 stamp box to be signed across. Bank transfer, UPI and cheque print no box at all — because none is required.

Landlord no-PAN declaration

A printable declaration for the landlord to sign when they hold no PAN or an application is pending — the document most payroll teams accept in its place.

Rent summary and HRA sheet

Two extra printable pages: a month-by-month summary with the annual total, and a clean HRA working sheet to attach to Form 124 or keep with your papers.

Ten-item document checklist

Agreement, receipts, PAN, bank trail, Form 124, relationship disclosure, stamps, address proof — tickable, saved, with the three mistakes that get claims disallowed spelled out.

Backup you control

One-click JSON export and import of everything you have entered. Move it to another laptop, keep it in Drive, or restore it next March without retyping a single field.

Preview

What each tab gives you

Details

One form. Financial year, rent, payment mode, city, tenant, landlord and property. Saved as you type, on your device only.

Receipts

Four numbers across the top — annual rent, the receipt range, whether the PAN is required, whether a revenue stamp is needed — then the twelve editable months and the print buttons.

HRA exemption

Three limit cards, the deciding one outlined in gold, then exempt, taxable and salary base. Below it, the indicative tax saved at your marginal rate.

Section 80GG

The same three-card treatment for people without HRA, with Form 10BA and the ownership condition stated plainly.

Documents

The ten-item checklist with progress, the no-PAN declaration generator, and the three patterns that get an HRA claim reopened.

Backup

Export, import, load the labelled sample, clear everything — plus how each figure is calculated, in plain words.

Who It Is For

Anyone who pays rent and has a payroll team

🏙

Salaried tenants in the eight metro cities

If you live in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune or Ahmedabad, the 50% limit is new for tax year 2026-27. This is the year to re-run the numbers instead of copying last year's claim.

📄

Anyone whose payroll asked for receipts last minute

Twelve months, printed and signed, in the time it takes to fill one form. No handwriting, no missing fields, no rejected pack.

🏠

Tenants whose rent changed mid-year

Every month has its own amount, so a hike in October or a month away from the flat is handled without breaking the annual total.

🧾

Self-employed people claiming 80GG

No HRA component, so the deduction is the ₹60,000-capped 80GG route — computed, and paired with the receipts an assessing officer will ask for.

🔒

People who would rather not type a PAN into a website

Your landlord's PAN and your salary figures stay in your own browser. The file loads nothing from the internet and sends nothing anywhere.

👨‍👩‍👧

Families helping a parent or a new graduate

One purchase covers one person's receipts for as many years as they need — set it up for a son or daughter's first rented flat in ten minutes.

File Format & Compatibility

Plain, portable files — no lock-in

Format

Browsers & devices

Current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop and mobile. No internet connection needed once downloaded — the file loads no fonts, scripts or trackers from the web.

Output

Print to any A4 printer, or Save as PDF from the print dialog. Two receipts per page. The print stylesheet forces a clean light layout whatever your screen theme.

Where the data lives

In your browser's local storage on that device, under the key rentproof-v1. Nothing is uploaded and there is no account. Export a JSON backup at the end of each session.

What it is not

It is not tax advice and it does not file anything. It does not know your salary structure, your regime choice or your landlord's circumstances, and it does not verify that rent was paid — the landlord's signature does that.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before buying

Is this an ebook or a working app?

A working app. The ZIP contains one HTML file that opens in your browser as a rent-receipt generator and HRA calculator — twelve months of receipts, the exemption working, 80GG, the declaration and the checklist. Nothing to install, no account to create.

What exactly does it produce?

Twelve rent receipts for the financial year you choose, April to March, two on each A4 page. Each carries the receipt number, tenant, landlord and PAN, the full property address, the period, the amount in figures and in words, the payment mode and reference, the date, a signature block, and a revenue-stamp box where one is needed. It also prints a one-page rent summary with the HRA working, and a landlord no-PAN declaration.

What is the HRA exemption rule it applies?

The least of three amounts: the HRA actually received, the rent paid minus one-tenth of salary, and 50% or 40% of salary. Salary means basic pay plus dearness allowance where DA forms part of your terms of employment — not gross salary, and certainly not CTC.

Which cities get the 50% limit?

From tax year 2026-27, Rule 279 of the Income-tax Rules, 2026 gives the 50% limit to Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Ahmedabad and Bengaluru. Everywhere else — Gurugram, Noida, Kochi, Jaipur and the rest — it is 40%. For tax year 2025-26 and earlier, only Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi and Chennai get 50% under Rule 2A. Choose the financial year in the app and the right rule is applied; the note under the calculation tells you which one is in force.

Is HRA available under the new tax regime?

No. The Section 10(13A) exemption applies only under the old regime. The app computes the exemption figure; whether you can use it depends on the regime you have chosen, and it will not pretend otherwise.

When is the landlord's PAN required?

Once the rent paid in the year exceeds ₹1,00,000. The app tracks the annual total as you type, warns you the moment you cross the threshold, and checks that the PAN is in the right shape — five letters, four digits, one letter.

What if my landlord has no PAN?

The Documents tab prints a declaration for the landlord to sign, stating that no PAN is held or that an application is pending. That is what most employers accept in place of the number. It means nothing without the landlord's signature, so print it, get it signed and keep a copy with the receipts.

Is a revenue stamp needed?

For rent paid in cash above ₹5,000 a month, a Re 1 revenue stamp is affixed and signed across. The app prints a stamp box on exactly those months when you set the mode to cash, and no box at all for bank transfer, UPI or cheque.

My rent changed mid-year. Can I handle that?

Yes. Every month has its own editable amount. Set a month to zero for a month you did not occupy the flat, and the annual total, the HRA figures and the printed receipts all follow from it.

Does it work for the year I am claiming now?

It covers 2025-26, 2026-27 and 2027-28. Receipts run April to March, which is how payroll and the return both work, and the metro rule switches with the year you select.

Can I print to PDF instead of paper?

Yes. Every print button opens your browser's print dialog, where Save as PDF gives you a file you can email to payroll. Two receipts fit on each A4 page, so twelve months come to six pages; if a receipt spills onto a second page, set the print margins to Default or Minimum.

Does it work offline, and where is my data?

The file loads nothing from the internet and works with the connection switched off. Your entries are stored in your own browser on your own device under the key rentproof-v1. Nothing is uploaded. There is a one-click JSON export and a matching import, so you can move everything to another laptop or keep a backup in Drive.

Does it file my return or talk to my employer?

No. It does arithmetic on the figures you enter and formats the documents. It does not file anything, connect to any portal, or verify that rent was paid — that is what the signed receipts and your bank statement are for.

Is this tax advice?

No. It is a calculator and a document generator. Rules change — Rule 279 itself is new from 1 April 2026 — so confirm the current position with your chartered accountant before relying on a figure for a filing.

How do I get the files after payment?

After a successful payment on Razorpay you are taken to a thank-you page with a download button. Click it and the ZIP is yours immediately.

Is it a subscription?

No. One payment of ₹199, no renewal, no expiry, and no limit on how many years of receipts you generate with it.

Can I get a refund?

Digital products are non-refundable once downloaded. But if a file arrives corrupted or will not open, or you were charged incorrectly, email lonefaisal977@gmail.com within 7 days and it will be replaced or resolved.
