I got 16 lpa CTC with WFH & I am living at my in-laws place at Tier3 city so can I create one rent agreement with them and transfer monthly rent online of around 60% of my monthly basic pay(65766×60%= around 40k) to make Max tax benefit of my HRA salary component?
Next query, as my wife is housewife so can she further take this money from her father in cash and deposit to her bank AC and seperate ITR can be filled for her as there will be zero tax for her?
is this legal what I am doing?

60% of salary rent is too much. Do not declare 90% of HRA received in salary.

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
