You can claim benefit for house rent paid under section 80GG, even if your salary structure does not contain this amount.

There are some conditions for this claim:

  1. It should be occupied by you.
  2. Your spouse/parents should not be paying rent for this house.
  3. You or your spouse should not be owning a house in same city.
  4. You should not be owning house at any other place for which you claim home loan benefit.
  5. Deduction cannot exceed a. Rs 2000 per month, b. rent paid - 10% of total income, and c. 25% of total income.

Regarding other benefits like TA etc, they cannot be claimed as they are not a part of salary.
