For the AY 20-21, rental income up to Rs 5 lacs received by a female senior citizen is indeed taxable. However, a standard deduction of 30% on the Net Annual Value (NAV) applies. While the income might still be taxable after this deduction, a rebate under Section 87A can be claimed if an Income Tax Return (ITR) is filed. It's important to file your ITR to benefit from this rebate.
