Ji, You are getting salary income /professional fees?

Comes under salary income -You get a standard deduction of Rs.50000 u/s 16.

So you are income below the taxable limit of Rs 500000, So no need to deduct or pay tax if you don't have any other income, Ji.
No tax should not be paid as it is less than standard deduction
