You are exempted from income tax if your income does not exceed Rs 2.5 lakh. However, this exemption is only for individuals under 60 years of age.
If you are between ages 60 and 80, you are exempted from income tax with an income of up to Rs 3 lakh.

For individuals aged 80 years and above, the limit is enhanced to Rs 5 Lakh.
