The condition of 50% in Metro and 40% in other cities is for HRA not for Basic. This is due to the fact the Income Tax Act allows HRA exemption as below:
The Least of following is exempt as HRA:
1. 50% of Basic+DA for Metro Cities (40% for others)
2. Rent paid - 10% of Basic+DA
3. Actual HRA received
There is no law which prescribes Basic to be maintained at certain %age of Gross Salary. However, generally companies maintain Basic vs Allowances ratio as 50:50 or 60:40
