[Start free](/signup?via=tool-rent-receipt-generator) ## How the rent receipt generator works Enter your name, your landlord's name, the rented address, the monthly rent and how you paid it. Then pick the first and last month. The generator makes one receipt for every month in that range, each numbered and dated to the end of its month, with the amount in figures and in words. If your rent is more than INR 1 lakh for the year (above INR 8,333 a month for a full year), your employer needs the landlord's PAN to allow the HRA exemption. Add it and it prints on every receipt; leave it out and the tool reminds you. If the landlord has no PAN, the usual route is a signed declaration from the landlord saying so. For rent paid in cash above INR 5,000, receipts customarily carry a INR 1 revenue stamp signed across by the landlord, and the generator adds a stamp box when you choose cash. Bank transfers and UPI leave their own trail, so they are better evidence anyway. Print or save as a PDF: only the receipts print, on white, several to a page. Have your landlord sign each one and submit them to your employer before the proof deadline, usually January to March. ## Worked example: Aman, renting in Gurugram for FY 2026-27 Aman pays INR 28,000 a month by bank transfer for a flat in Sector 56, Gurugram. His annual rent is INR 3,36,000, well above INR 1 lakh, so he adds his landlord's PAN. He selects April 2026 to March 2027 and gets twelve receipts of INR 28,000 each, 'Twenty-Eight Thousand Rupees Only', which his landlord signs in one sitting and he uploads to his employer's proof portal. ## Good to know - HRA exemption is available only in the old regime. In the new regime, rent receipts don't reduce your tax. - Rent paid to your parents is fine if they own the house and declare the rent as income. Rent paid to a spouse is usually not accepted. - Keep the rent agreement and bank or UPI records alongside the receipts: the tax department can ask for them, and receipts alone are weak evidence for large claims. - If your rent is above INR 50,000 a month, you also have to deduct 2% TDS under section 194-IB. Use the TDS on rent calculator for that. ## Frequently asked questions Is landlord PAN mandatory for rent receipts? It's needed when the rent you pay is more than INR 1 lakh in the financial year. Below that, receipts without PAN are accepted. If the landlord has no PAN, a written declaration from the landlord with name and address is the usual substitute. Do rent receipts need a revenue stamp? A revenue stamp is customary on cash receipts above INR 5,000 under the Indian Stamp Act. Many employers still ask for it on cash rent. If you pay by bank transfer or UPI, the payment record is stronger proof and most employers don't insist on a stamp. Can I claim HRA without rent receipts? Employers usually need receipts once rent crosses INR 3,000 a month. If your employer missed your HRA, you can still claim the exemption when filing your ITR under the old regime, but keep receipts, the agreement and payment proof in case of a query. Can I make rent receipts for past months? Yes, receipts can be prepared for months already paid, as long as they reflect real payments and the landlord signs them. Making receipts for rent you didn't pay to cut tax is a false claim and can attract a penalty of up to 200% of the tax evaded. How many rent receipts do I need to submit? Most employers ask for one receipt per month, or one per quarter. This tool makes one per month, which covers both.
