13 April 2026 To file Form 121, you must satisfy two primary conditions:
Total Tax Liability must be NIL: Your final tax on estimated total income for the year (after all deductions) must be zero.
Basic Exemption Limit: For individuals below 60 years, the total income from all sources (before deductions) should not exceed the basic exemption limit. Note: For senior citizens (60+), only the "Nil Tax Liability" condition usually applies, similar to the old Form 15H rules.

Answers to each option would depend upon the age of the assessee.
