The rules on the receipt
A rent receipt is the landlord's signed acknowledgement that a month's rent was paid, which an employer asks for before allowing the HRA exemption.
- Landlord PAN
- Over Rs 1 lakh
When the rent claimed in a year crosses Rs 1,00,000, the employer asks for the landlord's PAN on the HRA claim.
- Revenue stamp
- Re 1
A receipt for rent paid in cash above Rs 5,000 carries a Re 1 revenue stamp, signed across. Bank transfer, UPI and cheque do not need one.
- One batch
- 24 months
Each run covers up to 24 months, one page a month, with the rent in figures and in words.

When it helps with land
HRA proof at work
Employers ask for rent receipts for the year before they allow the HRA exemption in your salary.
Landlord billing
A landlord can send a monthly invoice with a due date. On a commercial let with a GSTIN, 18 percent GST is split into CGST and SGST.
Catching up on a year
Missed a few months? Generate the whole financial year in one run instead of writing twelve receipts by hand.
A receipt records a payment; it does not prove one. Pay rent by bank transfer or UPI where you can, keep the rental agreement, and the landlord should show the rent as income.
Questions people ask
Do I need the landlord PAN?
Only when the rent you claim under HRA crosses Rs 1,00,000 in the year. Below that the receipt stands without it.
When is the revenue stamp needed?
For a cash payment above Rs 5,000, a receipt carries a Re 1 revenue stamp signed across by the landlord. Bank transfers, UPI and cheques do not need one.
When does GST apply to rent?
On a commercial let by a GST registered landlord. Give the GSTIN and choose commercial, and the invoice adds 18 percent as CGST and SGST. Residential rent on these invoices carries no GST.
Can I generate more than two years?
Run it twice; each batch covers up to 24 months.
Does the landlord have to sign the receipts?
Yes. Print the PDF and have the landlord sign each page. You can also print a typed name in the signature box, but employers may ask for the real signature.
Can I pay rent to my parents and claim HRA?
Yes, when the house belongs to the parent, rent is actually paid, and the parent shows it as income in their return. Keep an agreement and pay through the bank.
Do I need rent receipts under the new tax regime?
The HRA exemption is not available under the new regime, so receipts are needed only if you claim HRA under the old regime.
Is this free?
Yes.
