The taxability of an individual arises when his taxable income exceeds the limit of taxation (i.e.,Rs.1.80lakhs in the P.Y.2010-11 etc). So calculate the taxable income and if the income exceeds the taxable income,then tax to be paid and ITR to be filled. It is nothing to do with whether salary is received in cheque or cash. Now as per the new rule if the taxable income does not exceed Rs. 5 lakhs and refund of tax is not due to him, then there is no requirement of filing ITR.
