Who Can File Form 15G/H?

Form 15 G and 15 H are used for the same purpose but have varied eligibility criteria. Here is how they differ:

Form 15G:

  • Annual income is less than ₹3,00,000.
  • You must be a resident of India and not a company or firm.
  • Your age should be below 60 years.
  • Your total annual income (including interest income) must be below the basic exemption limit; i.e., it should not lead to tax liability.
  • You must have a valid PAN in the bank’s records.

Form 15H:

  • Annual income is less than ₹7,00,000.
  • You should be 60 years or older (senior citizen).
  • The same resident status, PAN and no tax liability criteria as for Form 15G.
  • Your income (including interest) must be under the exemption threshold applicable to senior citizens, so that filing the form results in no TDS on eligible interest income.

Here are the documents you need to furnish to submit for 15 G/H:
