In order to compute HRA deduction correctly, you will have to provide following values in excel sheet:
1. Place of residence (Metro/Non-metro) in cell C4.
2. Basic salary in cells D9:O9.
3. House rent allowance (HRA) received as part of salary in cells D10:O10 (Rs 1000 in each cell).
4. Actual rent paid in cells D34:O34 (4000 Rs in each month in which rent was paid).

After this, you will see HRA exemption amount in cells D35 to O35 and total amount in year in cell P36.
