Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies who is considered an income tax payer. While typically it's someone who pays tax, filing an Income Tax Return (ITR) is often seen as an act of a taxpayer, even if your income is below the taxable threshold and you have no tax liability. The Income Tax department may still address you as a 'Tax Payer' in official communications.
Generally you need to hv a tax liability and the assesse can waive of the taxes as per the norms pescribed in the income tax act. So he has to file his returns and take benefit of that. A taxpayer pays taxes.
