New limits on the double beta processes for $^{ 120}$Te have been obtained using a 400 cm$^3$ HPGe detector and a source consisting of natural Te0$_2$ powder. At a confidence level of 90% the limits are $0.19\times 10^{ 18}$ y for the $\beta^+$EC$(0\nu + 2\nu)$ transition to the ground state, $0.75\times 10^{ 18}$ y for the ECEC$(0\nu + 2\nu)$ transition to the first 2$^+$ excited state of $^{ 120}$Sn (1171.26 keV) and $(0.19-0.6)\times 10^{ 18}$ y for different ECEC($0\nu$) captures to the ground state of $^{ 120}$Sn.
