I am not able to understand your query.
You want to claim both HRA and home loan interest component at the same time?

In case you have got the possession of your flat, then you can claim interest for tax exemption.
In case your own house (on which home loan is taken) is far away from your office (daily commuting cannot be done) then you can claim both HRA and home loan interest for tax exemption.

As per section 10(10AA) of income tax in India, leave encashment amount received by employee by a previous employer in full and final statement, is non-taxable. You can read more here: Leave encashment non-taxable
