What the published pages state

The personal tax service chip is labelled Senior citizen ITR guide.

The personal tax hub says accurate ITR for salaried employees, pensioners, and professionals in Coimbatore is aligned with Form 26AS and AIS.

The basic exemption page says the new-regime cell is ₹4,00,000. The old-regime cell is ₹2,50,000, or ₹3,00,000 for a senior citizen. That page says the old-regime cell names a senior citizen. It does not state an age. The new-regime cell does not name a senior citizen.

The standard deduction page says ₹75,000 on the new regime for salaried people and pensioners, and ₹50,000 on the old regime.

Instalments and the return form

The who-pays-advance-tax page says a resident senior citizen who does not have business or professional income is generally outside advance-tax instalments. It does not say that about a senior citizen who has business or professional income. The instalment dates stay on the advance-tax page.

ITR-1 is for a resident individual with total income up to ₹50 Lakhs when that income is salary or pension, one house property, other sources such as bank interest, and agricultural income up to ₹5,000 in the published ITR-1 copy.

The income-tax filing page does not name senior citizen in its text. It still lists Form 16, AIS, Form 26AS, and interest certificates in the same flow as other resident filings.

What it is not

The personal tax chip Senior citizen TDS (194P) is a different row from this ITR guide chip. Deductor filing stays on the TDS return filing page.

The internal audit services page says section 194P covers senior citizens with pension and interest income in specified cases. This page does not describe section 194P filing.

Family pension is a different chip on the personal tax hub: Family pension exemption. The published pages do not state an exemption amount on that chip page.

Before the return is filed

  1. Send Form 16 or pension papers, AIS, Form 26AS, and interest certificates you have.
  2. Say which regime you want compared. The desk uses the published slab and deduction rows.
  3. You approve the draft before the return is filed. Filing stays on the income-tax filing page.
  4. You complete e-verification yourself. That step is on the e-verification page.

After the return is filed, e-verify within 30 days. The return is quoted before it is filed. The first discussion is free.

Common questions

Does this page state the age for a senior citizen?

No. The basic exemption page says the old-regime cell names a senior citizen. It does not state an age. The new-regime cell does not name a senior citizen.

Is a senior citizen the same as a pensioner?

The personal tax hub names pensioners with salaried employees and professionals. ITR-1 names salary or pension. The senior citizen ITR guide chip does not define pensioner on the published pages.

What about section 194P?

The personal tax chip Senior citizen TDS (194P) points to the TDS return filing page. The internal audit services page says section 194P covers senior citizens with pension and interest income in specified cases. This chip page does not describe section 194P filing.
