When it is rootbound or when you buy it from a store and the soil they used sucked.

You can take the plant out of the pot and look at the roots, it wont hurt is and if it looks like they have little to no room to grow than it may be time to repot

And just because planta says repot, doesn't mean you have to.

If a plant is desperate for a repot, the lower, older leaves will start to yellow. If the plant is tipping because it's to top heavy. If it's crowded. Usually plants will need a repot every 1-2 years (even longer for some succs/cacti) depending on their size and growth. Some will need sooner, but it'd be a pretty fast growing plant. It will also depend on your nutrients, if you tend to not fertilize with liquid, and rely on slow release. Slow release can degrade in 4-16 weeks depending on the brand and conditions.

When the roots are coming out of the bottom of the pot. I personally try to hold off repotting for as long as possible
