The assessee cannot own a flat in his own profession, or in any other place, the value of which is to be ascertained in accordance with Sec 23(2)(a) or Sec 23(4)(a).

In other words, if Mr A is claiming on his income tax return an exemption for personal use and he pays rent for a place where he ordinarily lives, but does not own, he cannot claim an exemption under section 80GG :

If a person lives in a household with his father and mother, he can apply for eviction under Article 80GG. She will have to sign a lease with her parents to get the rent deduction.
