- Tax Liability: The declarant’s calculated total tax on their estimated total income for the previous financial year must be Nil (Form15G.pd… p. 1).
- Income Limit: The total interest income claimed via this form (plus any other 15G forms filed during the year) cannot exceed the maximum basic exemption limit not chargeable to income tax (Form15G.pd… pp. 1-2).

- In other cases, it carries rigorous imprisonment from 3 months to 2 years plus a fine (Form15G.pd… p. 2).
- Validity Period: A fresh Form 15G/H must be submitted at the beginning of every new Financial Year to keep the TDS exemption active (Form15G.pd… p. 1).

- Bank’s Responsibility: The bank official verifies the details, signs, and generates a Unique Identification Number (UIN) for each form (Form15G.pd… pp. 1-2).
