Answer: No, in AY 2020-21, tax free slab of income is 250000 (3 lacs for senior citizen & 5 lacs for super senior citizen), but now the rebate has been increased to Rs. 12500 so an resident Individual having income upto 5 lacs will have no tax because slab rate between 2.5 lacs to 5 lacs is 5% thereby maximum tax would be 12500 which will be reduced by rebate.
But if you have taxable income after chapter VIA deductions is more than 5 lacs, then you are not eligible for rebate, because this rebate is applicable only for the Resident Individual having total taxable income upto 5 lacs.
Many people are confused with this rebate system and interpreting that there is no tax on income upto 5 lacs.
So the tax free slab is 2.5 lacs only for other than senior citizen. It is because of rebate resident individual will have tax free income up to 5 lacs provided they have their total taxable income not more than 5 lacs.

Rebate u/s 87A is a provision for giving tax relief to the low bracket income earners.
From AY 2020-21 onwards following are the provisions related to rebate u/s 87A:-
1. This rebate can be claimed only by resident individual.
2. He must have his taxable income after claiming deduction u/s chapter VIA (Section 80) not more than 5 lacs
3. This rebate is reduced from tax liability before adding 4 % health & education cess.
4. This rebate is a not a refund but a relief so the amount of rebate will be capped to total tax liability for example if a person has total taxable income of 4 lacs , his tax liability will come as 7500 (5% on 150000), so the rebate u/s 87A would be allowed only 7500.
To many taxpayers this rebate is wrongly understood as they think that now the tax free slab for AY 2020-21 is 5 lacs, which is wrong for other than Resident Individuals for income upto 5 lacs.
