Due to Covid 19 Pandemic situation and age, during the last financial year 2020 - 2021, my relative stopped practicing Advocate profession and Notary.

Yes, file ITR 1.
In case of below taxable income no need to file ITR even having PAN card.

The Budget 2021 has proposed to insert a new section to provide relaxation from filing the return of income for senior citizens who are above the age of 75, if the following conditions are satisfied:
The senior citizen is resident in India and of the age of 75 or more during the previous year
The senior citizen who has pension and no other income. However, he or she may have interest income from the same bank in which he or she is receiving his or her pension income
This bank is a specified bank. The central government will be notifying a few banks, which are banking company, to be the specified bank
He or she has to furnish a declaration to the specified bank. The declaration containing such particulars, in such form and verified in such manner, as may be prescribed
"Once the declaration is furnished, the specified bank would be required to compute the income of such senior citizen after giving effect to the deduction allowable under chapter VI-A and rebate allowable under section 87A of the Act, for the relevant assessment year and deduct income tax on the basis of rates in force," according to the Budget document.
