The income which is taxable shall be called as income chargeable to tax. For example interest on Bank FD is taxable is called as income chargeable to tax, dividend on equity shares is exempted income it is called non taxable income.
So all the income which is below basic exemption limit(in one word we can say the income which shall be included in gross total income) is called as income chargeable to tax.
For your clarification on income below Rs.200000 is also we paying tax but the tax rate is ZERO.
So the income above basic exemption limit is called as Taxable Income.
