Minor to Major?

Dear Ria,

First of all wish ur brother a belated happy b'day..

Yes he has to file return in his own capacity from AY 2010-11 since age is to seen in the Previous year & not AY..Exemption limit will be available amounting to Rs.1,60,000/-

thanks so much for the reply.

Hi RIA.... he's completed 18 years in AY 2010-11..., So definately he's eligible to file return on indivicual basis.... (As he was in 17 during AY 2009-10, he is not elgible for that year).....

Moreover, the basic exemption limit and all rules of TAXATION are applicable for him thereafter....
