Free rent receipt generator for India
Need rent receipts for your HRA claim? Fill in the details once, pick a month range, and download every receipt as a single PDF. Generate the whole financial year in one go.
The rules, in plain words
- HRA proof: employers ask for rent receipts when you claim HRA exemption, usually at proof submission time each year.
- Landlord PAN: required by your employer when yearly rent crosses ₹1,00,000. Add it in the form and it appears on every receipt.
- Revenue stamp: needed only for cash rent above ₹5,000. Pick “Cash” and the receipt includes a marked space for the stamp.
- Signature: your landlord signs each receipt. A receipt without a signature is just a piece of paper.
Frequently asked questions
Why do I need rent receipts?
If you claim HRA (House Rent Allowance) exemption on your salary, your employer will ask for rent receipts as proof of the rent you actually paid. Most employers collect them yearly or quarterly during investment proof submission.
When is the landlord's PAN required?
If your total rent is more than Rs. 1,00,000 per year (about Rs. 8,333 per month), your employer needs your landlord's PAN to allow the HRA exemption. Below that, receipts alone are enough.
Do rent receipts need a revenue stamp?
Only when rent is paid in cash and the amount is above Rs. 5,000. Receipts for UPI, bank transfer or cheque payments do not need a revenue stamp. This generator adds a stamp box automatically for cash receipts.
