This discussion addresses how a pensioner whose total income (pension plus other sources like FD interest) exceeds the taxable limit should pay their Income Tax. The advice suggests paying advance tax by March 15th. It also highlights that senior citizens receiving pension income may not need to pay advance tax if they invest in a 5-year tax-saver FD, potentially avoiding tax liability altogether by utilising Section 80C deductions.

Advance tax is not mandatory for senior citizens getting pension income , if you invest in 150000/- 5 years tax saver FD you can avoid tax liability .
