Dividend Income above exemption limit?

A senior citizen 70+ stopped filing ITR due to income being below 3 lacs.

This year his gross income is likely to be 5 lacs due to higher dividends on the stocks held in the different companies.

What is the options open to him to comply with Income tax rules. TIA

Quick Summary
A senior citizen, previously exempt from filing income tax returns due to low income, now expects to earn 5 lacs primarily from dividends. This income surpasses the minimum exemption limit. The primary recommendation is to file an Income Tax Return (ITR) by the due date to comply with regulations, especially as dividends exceeding 10 lacs are taxable for individuals.

If income is more than the Minimum exemption limit  during the year than to  comply with Income Tax rules, file ITR by due date . 

File itr.
dividend above 10 lacs fir an individual is subject to income tax.
