About this tool
Check eligibility for PM Kisan, PM Vishwakarma, Stand-Up India, old age pension, EWS certificate, pre-matric scholarship, NEET age limits, ITR-1, Form 15G/15H and GST composition.
Answer a few questions and see whether you qualify, with the rule behind each answer. Pick the scheme or form at the top. This page brings together 10 separate government scheme eligibility checker pages (EWS certificate, Form 15G / 15H, GST composition, ITR-1 (Sahaj), NEET age limit, Old age pension, PM Kisan, PM Vishwakarma, Pre-matric scholarship, Stand-Up India) so you can compare them without hunting for the right one.
Open Government Scheme Eligibility Checker on AltFTool — it loads instantly in your browser.
Choose your scheme at the top: EWS certificate, Form 15G / 15H, GST composition, ITR-1 (Sahaj) and 6 more. On a phone it is a drop-down list.
Fill in the government scheme eligibility checker for that scheme; each of the 10 options keeps its own rules, data and defaults.
Read the result, then switch scheme to compare. The page link keeps your scheme (?v=ews-certificate), so you can bookmark or share it.
EWS certificate, Form 15G / 15H, GST composition and the rest sit behind one picker, so switching scheme takes a tap instead of a new search.
Every scheme keeps its own rules, numbers and defaults rather than one generic template.
The link remembers the scheme you picked, so a bookmark or a shared link opens straight on it.
10: EWS certificate, Form 15G / 15H, GST composition, ITR-1 (Sahaj), NEET age limit, Old age pension, PM Kisan, PM Vishwakarma, Pre-matric scholarship, Stand-Up India.

A resident individual who is 60 years or more at any time during the financial year submits Form 15H; everyone else eligible uses Form 15G. Form 15H has only one condition — tax on estimated total income must be nil — while Form 15G additionally requires that total interest stays within the basic exemption limit.
